Data Lineage

Data Lineage refers to the data lifecycle that includes the data's origins and where it moves over time. It tracks the data's journey from its source through various transformations, processing stages, and storage locations until its final destination. Data lineage provides visibility into the data flow, helping organizations understand data dependencies, ensure data quality, and support regulatory compliance. It is essential for troubleshooting data issues, performing impact analysis, and maintaining data governance.
