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• Enabling to understand which data sources are outdated or which datasets are relevant.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.
Data lineage tools map the data flow and help you understand where the data originated, how it flows and transforms. To help you find the right tool for your company, we prepared a list that includes some of the best data lineage tools.
