System for generating dataflow lineage information in a data network

Abstract:

A system for aggregating dataflow lineage information is disclosed. The system receives one or more input data elements and determines a dataflow path for the one or more input data elements. The dataflow path includes at least a data storage node and a computation node. Then, the system identifies a lineage control value associated with the data storage node and a version control value associated with the computation node. The system generates an output lineage for the one or more input data elements by appending the lineage control value to the version control value.
