In the current iteration, it's used to organize, discover, annotate, secure, and retain content. Metadata Platform adoption continues to grow exponentially as more Box products like Shield, Relay, Sign, Governance, etc., rely on it internally and as our customers continue to build custom applications leveraging it.
