## SQLFlow Introduce
|
|
|
|
The SQLFlow is a tool helps you collect data lineage information by analying the SQL scripts
|
|
in a governed data environment. It scan SQL code to understand all the logic and reverse engineer it,
|
|
to build an understanding of how data changes and which data serves as input for calculating other data.
|
|
|
|
Once the metadata of the data lineage is ready, SQLFlow presents a nice clean graph to you that tells
|
|
where the data came from, what transformations it underwent along the way,
|
|
and what other data items are derived from this data value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### What SQLFlow can do for you
|
|
- Provide a nice cleam diagram to the end-user to understand the data lineage quickly.
|
|
- Incorporate the lineage metadata decoded from the complex SQL script into your own metadata database for further processing.
|
|
- Visualize the metadata already existing in your database to release the power of data.
|
|
- Perform impact analysis and root-cause analysis by tracing lineage backwards or forwards with several mouse click.
|
|
- Able to process SQL script from more than 20 major database vendors.
|
|
|
|
### How to use SQLFlow
|
|
- Open the official website of the SQLFlow and paste your SQL script or metadata to get a nice clean lineage diagram.
|
|
- Call the Restful API of the SQLFlow to get data lineage metadata decoded by the SQLFlow from the SQL script.
|
|
- The on-premise version of SQLflow enables you to use it on your own server to keep the data safer.
