How can data lineage help me understand where my data comes from?

Data lineage shows you the complete journey of your data, tracing its path from the source to its final use. This helps you see where your data originates from, how it's transformed, and ensures you understand its context and reliability.

Can I save my lineage analysis?

Yes, you can save your analysis for later or directly share it with others.

What type of lineage is automatically ingested?

Dawiso ingests lineage metadata provided by the platform itself which is typically a table level lineage. You can ingest table as well as column level lineage from DWH automation frameworks like DBT. We also have a beta program for SQL parsers providing column level lineage.

How do you create it? What extraction methods do you use?

There are several ways to create a lineage. They are all listed and described here.

How often is the data lineage updated? Is it real-time or periodic?

Data lineage reflects the current state of your relations, which are either loaded manually or automatically. This means the accuracy and timeliness of the lineage directly depend on how up-to-date the underlying data is. When the relations are current, the lineage stays aligned in real-time with your data flows.

How does data lineage help with compliance and regulatory requirements?

It provides a clear record of data flows and enables tagging of sensitive or regulated data. This ensures you can track how such data is used, verify its handling, and demonstrate compliance with standards during audits.

Why does it matter to my business?

Data lineages ensure more accurate reporting, faster resolution of issues, and better compliance with regulations. It empowers both technical and business teams to trust their data and make informed decisions confidently.

Does data lineage work across all my systems, or only certain platforms?

Data lineage connects data from various sources, systems, and applications, providing a comprehensive view of your data ecosystem, regardless of the platform. However, compatibility depends on the specific integrations and connectors available.
