Data Lineage
Data Lineage eases the documentation and presentation processes and makes the coherency between data, application, infrastructure, location, and business capabilities clear
It does this by connecting data to individual applications that are further connected to infrastructure. It also links data to owners and business capabilities
Key questions
Which application(s) writes information to the entity, and which reads and uses
the information?
● Where in the business is the data used?
● Who is responsible for the data entity?
● What is the confidentiality of the data entities?
● Which infrastructure is the data entity hosted on?
● Where in the world is the data entity physically stored?
