Description

Data Lineage Extraction uses AI to reconstruct data lineage, enabling reliable impact analysis, by extracting lineage from ETL code, metadata, and schemas, across data architecture and catalog.

Business Problem

Data teams cannot reliably trace where data comes from because lineage is locked inside ETL code, pipeline metadata, and schemas. The gaps break impact analysis, slow incident response, and undermine regulatory data traceability.

Solution

The AI performs extraction on ETL code, pipeline metadata, schemas, and data catalog entries, returning structured lineage relationships between sources, transformations, and outputs.

Expected Value

Increases lineage coverage rate across critical data assets and shortens time to perform impact analysis.

Prerequisites
  • Historical ETL code, pipeline metadata, schemas, and data catalog entries are available with stable identifiers and sufficient coverage for the target workflow.
  • Source systems for data architecture and catalog workflows expose the required records through a repeatable export or service interface.
  • A named business owner exists to review structured lineage relationships and confirm the action workflow.
