The Query Studio’s console allows you to write SQL queries for ad hoc analysis and enhances collaboration and productivity with features like saved queries and a searchable Run History. This means you can quickly access previous queries along with all relevant metadata.
Our Data Catalog now allows you to save filters, enabling you to isolate the most relevant entities for your tasks. With a unified search experience, you can enter any term in the search bar to find what you need quickly and browse hierarchical data relationships. Capabilities to filter data lineage graphs based on time windows further improves your understanding of data sources and destinations.
Revamped pipeline authoring
Our revamped Pipelines UI streamlines the authoring process, offering a new, and now horizontal layout that simplifies the creation of pipelines. Coupled with advanced color coding, this update ensures better readability, making it easier for you to visualize, interact with, and understand the data flows.
