Timbr's Knowledge Lineage module is designed to transform the complex web of data sources and dependencies into clear, actionable knowledge. By providing detailed insights into the journey of data from its integration to consumption, this powerful tool empowers data engineers and analysts to ensure the integrity and utility of their data architecture.
The Essential Role of Data Lineage
Data lineage plays an important role when trying to figure out the origin of the data. It helps data practitioners understand the dependencies to the original data sources, on which databases, tables and columns, or business metrics rely on.
For companies that want to keep their data organized, the Knowledge Lineage is extremely important as it allows the business to see not only how datasets are being used, but also make sure the dependencies don’t break. Impact analysis, changing a table column, a business metric, or a view could have a domino effect and the dependency analysis helps you better understand what could be affected.
This visibility helps businesses understand and correct the source of error. It provides better data quality, and companies can solve problems in existing applications faster and create new applications more easily.
