New features expand automated data management solution with added scanner support and technology upgrades to improve data lineage experience.
Master Data Management partner, MANTA, announced the launch of Release 38, offering new capabilities to its world-class data lineage platform including powerful new scanners and technology enhancements to improve user experience and expand data pipeline visibility.
With Release 38, MANTA is offering new scanners for cloud-based data integration tools Fivetran and Azure Data Factory. By connecting to and scanning these two popular data integration solutions, MANTA users will achieve a comprehensive visualisation of data flows to produce informed, actionable business insights.
"This release incorporates two popular cloud-based data integration choices to extend the already substantial, automated view that MANTA provides of the end-to-end data pipeline - whether on-premise or in the Cloud," said Gary Allemann, MD at Master Data Management. "This visibility helps to increase both the availability and the agility of critical data pipelines by providing data engineers with an easily understood visual tool to assess impact, whilst extending ease of understanding for business users."
Release 38 incorporates several enhancements to existing data lineage scanners to improve user experience and offer greater visibility into data pipelines. New capabilities include:
- Snowflake: support for over two dozen operators and functions to deliver a detailed view of data flows across enterprise pipelines
- Alation Refresh Tokens: API connectivity support for Alation integration to enable comprehensive data visibility and security
- Power BI: added support for interactive data visualisations with paginated reports to print data in a neat, page-fitting table format
- PostgreSQL: support for “COPY FROM” statement to further extract and analyse pertinent metadata within selected databases
- SAP HANA: export command support for partner catalog integration.
Additional enhancements to MANTA’s infrastructure include improved performance of the Neo4j repository and the introduction of MANTA Alias, a new tool offering customers the ability to rename components within the repository tree to replace overly technical names with one that is more recognisable to the user.
“MANTA’s dedication to providing the most comprehensive data lineage solution is reflected by our engineering team’s continued product innovation,” said Ernie Ostic, SVP of Product at MANTA. “With Release 38, MANTA users have access to new and improved lineage capabilities for further visibility into data environments and access to the highest quality data to inform business decisions that fuel company growth.”
