Overview

This document captures the design of enhancements to data discovery in 4.0.

Requirements

The main requirements influencing these enhancements are:

1. Support configurable sorting for search results. Preferably, both sortBy and sortOrder should be supported. In addition, it would be nice to support multiple combinations of sortBy and sortOrder
2. Support pagination for search results. The API should accept offset (defines the start position in the search results) and limit (defines the number of results to show at a time) parameters.
3. Metadata for every search result should include (**needs confirmation**):
   1. name
   2. description
   3. creation time
   4. version
   5. entity type
   6. owner
   7. any more?
