Global Data Catalog Market Size study & Forecast, by Deployment (Cloud and On-premises), by Enterprise Type (Large Enterprises and SMEs), by Industry (BFSI, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Retail, IT, and Others) and Regional Forecasts 2025-2035

The Global Data Catalog Market is valued at approximately USD 1.06 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a compound annual growth rate of nearly 19.90% over the forecast period 2025-2035. A data catalog serves as an organized inventory that empowers enterprises to seamlessly discover, govern, and manage their ever-expanding volumes of data assets across diverse platforms. Acting as a central metadata repository, it accelerates data-driven decision-making while ensuring compliance, enhancing security, and improving operational efficiency. The demand for data catalog solutions is being fueled by the exponential rise in digital transformation initiatives, the growing adoption of cloud computing, and enterprises’ increasing need to derive actionable insights from complex datasets. Moreover, as organizations strive to break down silos and enhance self-service analytics, data catalogs have become indispensable tools for fostering collaboration and maximizing the business value of data.

The surge in enterprise adoption of analytics-driven strategies has fueled the growing demand for modern data catalog platforms. These solutions not only help maintain data quality and accessibility but also enable businesses to drive competitive advantage by transforming raw data into meaningful intelligence. For instance, according to IDC, global data creation is projected to reach more than 180 zettabytes by 2025, underscoring the urgent requirement for scalable cataloging solutions. The rise of hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructures, coupled with AI and machine learning integration in catalog platforms, further amplifies their value proposition. However, challenges related to data security, integration complexity, and high deployment costs may slightly restrain market expansion during the forecast period.
