Metadata Management
Activate High-value Metadata
Your metadata is valuable. Activate it across the data management ecosystem. Improve analytics, adapt to change, and power your data fabric.
Enrich your data fabric with active metadata
The data fabric connects users to essential tools and data, scaling as you grow. Alation infuses the data fabric with behavior-driven metadata, collecting and interweaving metadata from other data sources. The outcome: advanced data & analytics solutions leveraging the IQ of your enterprise.
Leverage behavioral metadata
Behavioral metadata includes important social signals, such as who uses data and how. Powered by the Behavioral Analysis Engine, Alation surfaces insight details like popularity, search relevancy, usage recommendations, and more — guiding users to the best use of data.
Metadata where and when you need it
Launch data pipelines with lineage
Alation provides a visual representation of end-to-end data lineage including data flow transformations, supporting both compliance and trusted data pipelines. Impact analysis highlights the potential upstream and downstream impact of your changes to data, as well as who is impacted.
Data documentation used to be a laborious process... Today, the data discovery process takes as little as 15 minutes instead of up to 2 days.
