Lineage & governance

Data Breadcrumbs

Trace markers left in the data itself, so any row can tell you where it came from.

Lineage carried in-band: every row (or asset) leaves a trail of markers — source, run, transformation, timestamp — so you can walk back from any value to its origin without a separate lineage system. Lineage you can follow from the data itself.
