Models are the specific implementations or representations of model asset types, detailing the relationships, attributes, and rules associated with particular data sets. They serve as the practical application of the concepts defined by model asset types.
For example, within a 'Customer Data Management' asset type, a specific model could be created to represent 'Customer Profiles.' This model would detail the attributes of customer data, such as name, contact information, purchase history, and preferences, along with rules for data validation and updates.
