Empower UX capability and Data Platform updates

Overview

In the Empower UI, we are moving closer to achieving complete support for Metadata Management. This includes support for metadata extraction/refresh and the capability to view extracted metadata at both the object-level and the field-level. These enhancements provide users with greater visibility into their source metadata, which sets the foundation for effective Data Acquisition (DAQ) flow management.

Meanwhile, we are refactoring connectors to ensure compliance with the new ingestion engine, including the Kronos connector. Our connector library is continuously expanding, offering clients access to a wider range of data sources with every release.
