Dawiso scanners integrate with a wide range of data sources, from MSSQL to Snowflake and beyond. Catalog not just your data, but anything—from reports to products.
Define owners, access, sensitivity, and identify new or updated data assets.
Bring your metadata into Dawiso from any source—whether manually or through automated ingestion. Import from external files, databases, or other systems to create a catalog of anything, from a bookstore inventory to a supplier list.
Dawiso captures two types of metadata: user-entered/imported metadata and scanned metadata, which is automatically collected by scheduled scanners. These scanners analyze source systems like databases, reporting servers, and data models—reading structures, definitions, and relationships. Each scanner can be configured to fit your system’s needs.
Dawiso supports Database and REST API and you can use it to integrate data from Dawiso to other systems. This feature is part of the Enterprise pricing plan.
Dawiso periodically scans databases to ensure accurate metadata, such as table and column names and relationships. Scan frequency depends on factors like database size, complexity, and data change rate, and Dawiso allows users to configure the scan frequency for individual databases or tables to ensure that critical data is updated as needed.
The primary purpose of our Data & Analytics Catalog is to improve the efficiency of data management and analytics activities in your organization. Dawiso helps you reduce data redundancy, improve data quality, and facilitate collaboration among team members. As a result, Dawiso supports better decision-making and more effective problem-solving.
