OpenMetadata Warehouse

In development prototype

I connected Claude Code to an OpenMetadata service running over an Oracle and SQL Server warehouse, so ingestion, lineage and server lifecycle are managed as code.

An OpenMetadata implementation over a two-engine institutional warehouse (Oracle + SQL Server): connectors, data dictionaries, lineage, and the server's own lifecycle managed as code, with Claude Code driving the metadata service directly.

Problem

A public-sector health insurer's data warehouse spans two database engines with no shared catalogue: nobody can see where a field came from, or what feeds a report, without asking whoever built it originally. Lineage and data dictionaries only ever existed in people's heads.

What it will be

A case study on standing up OpenMetadata over a real institutional warehouse: connectors for both engines, generated data dictionaries, lineage from source table to report, and the server's own lifecycle — upgrades, backups, restarts — managed as code rather than by hand. Claude Code drives the metadata service directly, which doubles as evidence for how this workspace actually uses it day to day.

Status: Being documented and anonymised for public release. Demo and code follow.
