Organizations that face metadata problems are looking for a single, common metadata repository. Certive offers the ability to integrate, virtually or physically, existing data and metadata using a model-driven architecture to enable deployment of a consistent metadata vocabulary to existing reporting and analysis applications. Our real-time, distributed architecture eliminates the high maintenance costs associated with today's central repository, master data management, and application metadata management architectures.We can also write back to data sources including application APIs to update metadata dynamically.

Certive's Model-Driven Architecture enables easy administration of data sources, a common vocabulary, naming conventions, and business processes / rules. In addition, as business processes and models change, the Certive solution can be dynamically changed with them.Our native Java architecture supports industry open standards including Meta Object Facility (MOF), Common Warehouse Metamodel (CWM), and XML Metadata Interchange (XMI).
