Question
How do I add new asset types, their assets and icons, and their data flows into the catalog of IBM InfoSphere Information Catalog?
Answer
Since Version 11.3.1.2 RU 16, you can extend the model of InfoSphere Information Governance Catalog and add asset types and metadata from other products to give a holistic representation of those assets in the catalog. The main reason to add new asset types is to enrich your lineage reports.
For details, see this document: bundle_assets_IGC.pdf
See the attached files for examples and templates of the format to use to register new asset types and import their assets and data flows into the catalog.
