EasyDataTool news

This version brings the following changes:
– New graphics module allowing you to directly generate graphic from a query in image or Excel format.
– Directly generate a data lineage from a field.
– Choose between two types of data lineage: one taking into account transformations over time and the other more technical displaying relationships between data.
– Export a data lineage in Powerpoint format.
– Handle null values: in previous versions, null values were displayed with the word “None”. They are now replaced by default by an empty character string.

This version brings the following changes:
– Relationship management directly on the data lineage: it is now possible to add new relationships, modify or delete existing relationships directly from the visualization graph of a data lineage.
– Various bugs fixed

This version brings the following changes:
– Added visualization of data linked to an attribute or an object: it is possible to list all the data from your sources which are linked to an attribute or an object.

The following changes have also been made since version 3.2.4.1:
– Added automatic detection of relationships in Data Lineage: when creating a data lineage, this functionality allows relationships to be automatically created based on the lineage rank of sources, tables or fields.
– Creation of non-existing sources when importing federation information from a file: when importing federation information from a file that references sources that do not already exist, new Sources can automatically be created in SQLite format. This can be useful for creating lineages even if you don’t have access to the actual sources.
– Added filters for the list of objects and attributes in the data lineage: search fields have been added to more easily search for an attribute or object.
– Migration and support for Python 3.11 with correction of some instructions which are no longer supported by Python 3.11: upgrade from version 3.6 to 3.11
– Improvement in the display of query results to distinguish rows from each other and change in sorting management by column: new display of results to better distinguish each row.
– Added selection of field discovery method in relationships: to create relationships, it is possible to search on the first selected field to display a list of possible candidates for the second field. It is also possible to choose the detection mode: according to the name of the field or according to the data schema.
– Added data lineage display: a new format has been integrated. In particular, it allows you to export the lineage as an image (PNG format).
– Added filters to the queries and results library: search filters have been added to the queries and results

This version brings the following changes:
– Data lineage export: this new feature allows data lineages to be exported in an Excel workbook.
– Data lineage import: it is possible to import and create a data lineage from the information of an Excel workbook (same format and same information as the file resulting from the data lineage export).
– Management of data lineages: creation, modification of a lineage has been improved.

This version brings the following changes:
– Data lineage: this new functionality makes it possible to add data lineages that allow you to graphically visualize the path of the data through the information system.
– Data quality indicators: from the information collected by the data inspector, the quality indicators (% of null values or % of values corresponding to the quality model defined at the catalog attribute level) of the data contained in the lineage is displayed visually on the course. This makes it possible to potentially detect data anomalies if these indicators are seen to deteriorate.

This version brings the following changes :
– Catalog history: This new feature allows you to save the results of data inspections to a database. It also makes it possible to identify changes to the inspected sources between the previous inspection and the new one:
– Detection of the arrival of new tables or fields
– Detection of the deletion of tables or fields
– Detection of field modifications (column type, column label or description, etc.)

This version brings the following changes :
– Free Premium version: EasyDataTool is available for free to all users!
– Addition of a filter on the list of sources: it is possible to enter a character string to filter the list of sources according to the string entered.

This version brings the following changes :
– File management: this new feature allows you to scan a directory and its subdirectories to retrieve information about the files they contain. It is then possible to perform operations on the files such as renaming, moving, copying or deleting.
– Files recognized by EDT (Excel, CSV, JSON, XML, TEXT…) can be added automatically as sources in the data federation.
– File operations can be performed in batch mode.
