Having a single meta store per region helps keep metadata management organized, but customers are asking for multiple meta stores for different needs. Is it possible to have several meta stores?</P><P>Regards,</P><P>Phani</P> Fri, 07 Feb 2025 16:15:47 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/get-started-discussions/multiple-metastores-in-unity-catalog/m-p/109425#M4797 Phani1 2025-02-07T16:15:47Z https://community.databricks.com/t5/get-started-discussions/multiple-metastores-in-unity-catalog/m-p/109430#M4799 <P><a href="https://community.databricks.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/36892">@Phani1</a>&nbsp;</P><P>When attempting to create multiple metastores in a specific region, you may encounter the following error:</P><P>&nbsp;</P><PRE>This region already contains a metastore.
