Answer to Question 1

Metadata is data about data, and it clarifies the nature of the information. For structured information, metadata describes the definitions of each of the fields, tables, and their relationships. For semi-structured and unstructured information, metadata are used to describe properties of a document or other resource, and are especially useful because it layers some structure on information that is less easily categorized and classified. YouTube's MySQL database, for example, contains metadata about each of its videos that can be searched and sorted.

Answer to Question 2
