ASG-Manager Products control information from one single point about the entities running your business. The Manager Products family provides out-of-the-box support for many metadata sources and predefined repository information models (RIMs) at software development and production organizations. They also can be easily customized for your organization. The underlying repository provides a means for integrating, exchanging, and reusing metadata. It creates a foundation for information engineering across different tools and platforms. In addition, it stores the master set of metadata to prevent lock-in of individual tools. As a result, models within and across project teams are high quality and consistent. Manager Products use enterprise information to support the following:

• Applications and database development
• Database administration
• Data warehouse management
• Data modeling and design automation
• DDL generation
• Change management
• Documentation
