Abstract
Techniques and solutions are described for storing and processing metadata, including to instantiate database artefacts at a target system based on metadata for database artefacts maintained at a source system. The target system can query the source system for metadata associated with database artefacts of the source system. The target system can instantiate database artefacts based on such metadata. The database artefacts of the target system are linked to corresponding database artefacts of the source system, such as by associating a database artefact of the target system with an API useable to obtain data or metadata from the source system for a corresponding database artefact of the source system. The target system obtains additional data or metadata for a database artefact of the target system using a corresponding API.
