Topic: Managed Metadata and the Managed Metadata Service

As SharePoint explodes in enterprise capacity, big data often results in a lot of big noise, too. Managed Metadata is a tool to help you separate valuable signals from all the useless background static. Today’s SPUG is intended to help content managers looking to optimize the user experience for document-centric collaboration in SharePoint and Office 365.
