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. **Does Dawiso support API integration?** Dawiso provides a REST API and a SQL API you can use to integrate data from Dawiso into other systems. The REST API is included in every plan, the SQL API from the Corporate plan. **How often is external data ingested?** Dawiso periodically scans databases to ensure accurate metadata. Scan frequency depends on factors like database size, complexity, and data change rate. You can configure the scan frequency for individual databases or tables to ensure that critical data is updated as needed. **What can I expect from using Dawiso Data Catalog?** Your team finds trusted data faster, cuts time spent on ad-hoc data requests, and makes decisions with a shared understanding of what the data means. Data owners stay accountable because ownership is visible. Analysts spend less time chasing definitions and more time on analysis. **How is Dawiso different from other data catalogs?** Dawiso combines automated cataloging with AI-powered enrichment and a built-in business glossary, at a fraction of the cost of enterprise alternatives like Collibra or Alation. Setup takes hours and the platform is designed for business users and IT teams alike. **Can Dawiso catalog unstructured data?** Yes. Dawiso governs both structured data (databases, warehouses, BI reports) and unstructured data (PDFs, documents, files) in one platform.
