Data Lineage

Trace every column from source to dashboard to API

Understand exactly where your data comes from, how it changes, and where it ends up — across warehouses, pipelines, dashboards, and APIs. Goava builds end-to-end, column-level lineage so your Data Management Office can answer "where did this number come from?" with evidence, not guesswork.

End-to-End & Column-Level

Follow every column from source system to final report

Most teams can name the dashboard; few can prove the path behind it. Goava maps lineage across your stack — tables, pipelines, topics, and dashboards, with API endpoints linked to the tables behind them — at both table and column granularity. When a regulator, auditor, or business owner asks how a figure was produced, the answer is one click away. And before you change anything upstream, impact analysis shows exactly which downstream assets — and which consumers — will feel it.

  • End-to-end lineage across tables, pipelines, dashboards, topics, and APIs
  • Column-level detail: trace a single field through every transformation
  • Impact analysis: see every downstream asset before you change a schema
  • Lineage evidence that supports documentation aligned with the NDMO framework

Visual Editor & Lineage API

Curate lineage visually — and record what scanners miss

Automated harvesting covers most of your estate, but real environments always have connections no scanner sees — legacy jobs, manual processes, custom scripts. Goava's visual lineage editor lets data stewards draw, correct, and document those connections directly on the graph — including the links from API endpoints to the tables behind them. Pipelines and scripts can also use the lineage API to record the links they create, so the graph keeps getting more complete.

  • Visual lineage editor: add, correct, and annotate lineage on the graph
  • A lineage API lets pipelines and scripts record the links they create
  • Link each endpoint to the tables behind it, down to the column
  • Named owners keep every manual edit accountable

Lineage capabilities

Everything your Data Management Office needs to prove where data comes from — and where it goes.

  • Column-Level Lineage

    Trace individual columns through every join, transformation, and aggregation — from source system to dashboard.

  • Impact Analysis

    Before changing a table or pipeline, see every downstream asset, report, and API endpoint that depends on it.

  • Visual Lineage Editor

    Draw, correct, and document lineage directly on the graph — including manual processes no scanner can detect.

  • Lineage API

    Pipelines, scripts, and integrations can add, update, and remove lineage links through Goava's REST API, alongside harvested and hand-drawn lineage.

  • Pipeline-Aware via Airflow & dbt

    Lineage understands your orchestration layer: Airflow DAGs and dbt models become part of the end-to-end picture.

  • API-to-Data Lineage

    Link each endpoint cataloged from an OpenAPI specification to the tables behind it, down to the column.
