As easy as Google Maps
Alation Business Lineage is as easy to use as Google Maps. Using the layers for directions and traffic information is like traversing data lineage with data health, trust flags, and other business metadata overlays. Info Windows in Google Maps provides detailed information about items along your journey in the same way that Alation's overlay metadata summary pane does for data elements, providing extra context relevant to the data flow.
