ASG Data Intelligence

ASG Data Intelligence (ASG DI) is the solution for data distrust. It is a metadata-driven platform that makes technical data “smarter” with end-to-end views of the data and its movements (data lineage) combined with business meaning and usage guardrails. It lets you visualize data flows mapped to business context, and it uniquely traces lineage by parsing code from data sources, applications, tools, and source code.

Data lineage forms the foundation for accurate data analytics and management. The core features of data lineage focuses on:

• Identifying data quality issues.
• Performing root cause analysis.
• Enabling to understand which data sources are outdated or which datasets are relevant.
• Minimizing the risk of migration projects.
• Providing transparency over the life cycle of data.
