Unity Catalog
Unity Catalog is the governance layer of the Databricks platform. It keeps one place for tables, files and models, and for who may see or change them. Access, ownership and lineage are managed there instead of in every workspace separately.
Definitions are general and kept short on purpose. Check the vendor documentation or the regulation for the details of your case.
