Lineage overview¶
Lineage in Atlan is defined by Process
entities. These link assets together by inputs
and outputs
, and there can be any number of each of these:
graph LR
s1[(Source 1)]
s2[(Source 2)]
s3[(Source 3)]
t1[(Target 1)]
t2[(Target 2)]
p([Process])
s1 & s2 & s3-->|inputs|p-->|outputs|t1 & t2
Through Atlan's APIs, you can create your own lineage as well as traverse lineage programmatically.
