1. A method, the method being performed using one or more processors, comprising:
accessing a plurality of datasets, wherein the plurality of datasets includes tables such that each table comprises rows representing objects and columns representing properties;
accessing statistics relating to the plurality of datasets;
comparing the statistics with one or more thresholds corresponding to types of global properties that are present in the plurality of datasets, wherein each global property corresponds to one or more columns that are associated with a first portion of data in two or more of the plurality of datasets;
based at least in part on the comparing, performing a first determination that at least one of the one or more thresholds has been met;
based on the first determination, inferring that a first global property is present; and
generating metadata comprising the first global property.
