AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional approaches to maintaining data lineage across different environments are unreliable, often requiring manual specification of target lineages and leading to inconsistencies between source and target lineages.

Method used

A computer-implemented method for converting a first data lineage to a second data lineage, involving the identification of a portion of the first data lineage, generating the second data lineage by traversing the first data lineage, and associating second components with physical components of the identified portion, thereby eliminating manual specification and ensuring consistency.

Benefits of technology

This method enables accurate and reliable maintenance of data lineage, reduces computational resource consumption, and allows for deep diving into physical components associated with the source data lineage from the target data lineage.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for conversion of a first data lineage to a second data lineage, the method comprising: obtaining a first data lineage specifying relationships among physical components of a plurality of physical components; receiving an identification of a portion of the first data lineage; generating a second data lineage from the identified portion of the first data lineage, the second data lineage specifying relationships among second components of a plurality of second components, wherein the second components of the plurality of second components are associated with at least some of the physical components of the identified portion of the first data lineage. A corresponding computer-readable medium, a corresponding a data processing system, and a corresponding computer program are also described.
