DataHawk
Automatically extract and visualize data lineage by mapping the flow of data from its origin to its destination. This comprehensive data lineage management solution gathers and assesses the lineage of critical data, illustrating the data flow and derivation rules from the source to the target. Understanding data lineage involves tracing the journey of data as it is processed, transformed, and utilized, thereby revealing the flow and derivation rules that govern it. The solution offers a multi-tier, column-level data lineage graph alongside a detailed list that tracks data progression from source to target. Users can drill down into data lineage at the business system, table, and column levels for a granular view. Additionally, it provides parsers for various environments to facilitate thorough analysis, including support for Big Data technologies. Utilizing our patented technology, the system conducts path-sensitive dynamic string analysis and data flow analysis within programs, enhancing the understanding of data movement. This capability ensures that organizations maintain a clear view of their data's journey, thereby fostering better data governance and compliance.
