Create a map of your data flow with data lineage

Dataedo provides enterprise-wide visibility into data lineage. With the ability to create intricate maps of data movement within a system,
Dataedo allows users to visualize the complete data flow from its origin to destination on interactive diagrams.

Document your data lineage automatically

Extract lineage automatically from dependencies and SQL parsing to visualize how data moves through the system without manual effort. Save time, reduce errors, and quickly understand dependencies across your systems.

Document your data lineage automatically

Visualize your data flow
on source, object, and column-level

Visualize data movement at the source, object, and column levels to fully understand dependencies and transformations.

Map non-standard sources
with manual data lineage

Document custom or unsupported systems manually, ensuring no data source is left untracked. Paint the full picture of your data ecosystem.

See how data is transformed
and peak into process scripts

See exactly how data is transformed by reviewing scripts, procedures, and ETL processes for full transparency. Identify potential bottlenecks, errors, or inconsistencies early to reduce risk and improve data reliability.

Unlock the full potential of your data with Data Lineage

Visibility, trust, and control for smarter decisions

End-to-End Data Visibility

Gain a complete view of data movement across your organization from source to destination, supporting better data management, governance, and decision-making.

Trusted Data for Analytics & AI

Ensure data feeding analytics, machine learning, and AI initiatives is accurate, consistent, and traceable, powering smarter business decisions.

Fast Impact Analysis

Quickly understand how changes to tables, columns, or processes affect downstream systems. Reduce errors, prevent disruptions, and make changes with confidence.

Faster Troubleshooting & Issue Resolution

Identify bottlenecks, errors, or inconsistencies in your data pipelines quickly, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency.

Regulatory Compliance & Audit Readiness

Track sensitive and regulated data through every step of its flow. Ensure audit-readiness, maintain compliance, and avoid costly fines.

Understand your data ecosystem
Table Lineage

Trace data sources

Understand where your data originates and track the upstream sources for any table or dataset. Quickly identify dependencies in your warehouse or across systems.

Impact Analysis

Analyze table usage

Easily perform impact analytics - understand where a particular object is being used, what elements, reports, or users eventual change will impact.

Layers of views Lineage

Navigate layers of views

Databases often contain multiple views and complex hierarchies. Lineage diagrams reveal which views depend on others, helping you understand relationships and data flow at every layer.

ETL Lineage

Map ETL processes

Visualize how data moves through your ETL pipelines. Understand transformations, processing steps, and dependencies to optimize workflows and troubleshoot issues faster.

Cross-system Lineage

Track cross-system flows

Gain visibility into how data moves between applications and systems, undeerstand dependencies and improve governance across your organization.

Column Lineage

Dive into column-level lineage

Go beyond tables and views. Map data flow at the column level for detailed insights, ensuring complete transparency and traceability for analytics, reporting, and compliance.

Data lineage for all your data sources

We support automatic data lineage for all popular databases, ETLs, BI tools and constantly are extending our support.

FAQs

What is a data lineage tool?
Data lineage tools allow to visualize how data moves through your systems from source to destination, and understand its transformations along the way. It helps teams understand dependencies, troubleshoot issues, ensure data accuracy, and support compliance and analytics initiatives.
How to create a data lineage?
To create data lineage, start by identifying all data sources, tables, and processes in your system. Document how data flows between these data elements, including transformations and dependencies, either manually or using automated data lineage solutions like Dataedo. Visualize the lineage in diagrams that show data movement from source to destination at both object and column levels.
How does Dataedo do data lineage?
Dataedo captures data lineage by connecting to your databases and other data systems, automatically extracting it from dependencies and SQL parsing, and allowing you to complement that with manual flows for unsupported sources.
