What is a Business Glossary?

A business glossary is a means of sharing internal vocabulary within an organization. Most business glossaries share certain characteristics, such as standard data definitions or documentation of them. Along with maximizing search capabilities within an organization, a business glossary is also used as a framework to create, nurture, and promote a common vocabulary. Business glossaries ensure trust in a company’s data and reduce risks that data will be misused due to an inconsistent understanding of the business concepts.
