Enterprise data flow lineage from enterprise data testing metadata

Abstract:

A computing system for managing and mapping source data and target data associated with a data transformation analyzes data quality testing data. Source data and target data include the data elements, data structures, and storage mechanisms for data associated with a data transformation. The computing system analyzes the data quality testing data for validation of the associated data transformation. The computing system identifies source data for input to the data transformation and target data for the result of the data transformation. The computing system stores identifiers associated with the source data and target data and records validated data lineage information for the data transformation. Based on a configuration, the computing system generates a data lineage map indicating the relationships between the source data and the target data associated with a number of data transformations that occur within the computing system.
