Visualize data sources and pipes dependencies on Tinybird
Blog post from Tinybird
The new Data Lineage graph feature allows users to visualize the connections between Data Sources, Pipes, and Materialized Views within a workspace, providing a clear picture of data flow from origin to destination. This visualization tool is accessible via the Data lineage graph button or the Advanced information tab in the Data Source modal and offers potential benefits such as facilitating new team member onboarding, increasing visibility of unused Data Sources, and highlighting Pipes without active endpoints. The interface uses consistent color coding to differentiate between used and unused Data Sources, Pipes with or without endpoints, and Materialized Views, making the data ecosystem easier to understand. The creators are eager to receive user feedback to enhance the feature further, which they developed to address challenges faced in managing large data projects.
