Foundational's Code Intelligence Engine scrutinizes code alterations to identify issues, unveil concealed dependencies, and assess downstream ramifications well in advance of any interaction with live data. Foundational's code-based data lineage extends beyond the conventional coverage offered by standard warehouse and BI tools, encompassing a comprehensive analysis across various platforms such as Airflow, Spark, dbt, and more. This solution provides column-level lineage throughout the entire data stack. Notably, the process is fully automated, requiring zero code or configuration changes. The lineage information remains consistently up-to-date, seamlessly reflecting the latest code merged into the system.
