The Metadata Service provides an API for retrieving JSON metadata of GUIDs. It is a flexible option for "semi-structured" data (key:value mappings).

The GUID (the key) can be any string that is unique within the instance. The value is the metadata associated with the GUID, it’s a JSON blob whose structure is not enforced on the server side.

The server is built with FastAPI and packaged with Poetry.
