Your question was general & hence responding. If it is specific to sitecatalyst post in right forums.
Metadata is an document that describes various technical aspects like unique identified, name description, certificates... that are agreed to work together between Identity Provider/Service Provider. Which helps to communicate each other.
Meta data will be at both IDP/SP. Generally IDP stores at file system level & service provider (EX:- onling) generates online. Offcourse inputs come form both so that you can agree upon certificates, attributes, entityid etcc..
After authentication IDP will tell success/failure along with list of attributes you configured in metadata.
