Automatically document multiple data sources
With Database Mapper, you can automatically document data sources including:
- SQL Server
- SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS)
- SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS)
- SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
- Azure Data Factory
- Azure Synapse Analytics (formerly Azure SQL Data Warehouse)
- Salesforce
- Excel
- Tableau
- And more!
Database Mapper efficiently and accurately documents your entire Microsoft Data Platform. You can configure the settings to ensure that you always have up-to-date documentation, which also helps ensure compliance with business rules and data regulations. Plus, you can export documentation in HTML format.
Visually analyze data lineage
Accurately analyzing the origin of your data—and where it can move throughout your solutions—is critical for ensuring data integrity and compliance with business rules and data privacy regulations.
Database Mapper gives you a visual display of data lineage, so you can immediately understand data dependencies across the entire data estate.
Track changes in your documentation at different points in time
With Database Mapper, you can compare historical documentation with any other historical (or current) documentation. This capability helps your team see changes between two solutions, or the same solution at different points in time, comparing differences in the generated documentation.
Create a clear map of your Salesforce data
Salesforce developers and analysts can make sense of their CRM data by using Database Mapper to view the structure of Salesforce data, including dependencies among Salesforce objects (such as fields, accounts, leads), workflows, and processes. Database Mapper saves time and resources by accelerating on-boarding, data cleanup, and automations.
Understanding Dependencies in your SQL Server Estate
The Environment Map in Database Mapper leverages data collected from the SQL Sentry database to create a clear map of the applications, users, client, and processes that are connected to your servers in your SQL Server environment.
What’s new in Database Mapper for Environment Map:
- Environment Map as a data source
- Lineage text view
- Ability to filter object types in lineage graph
- Shorter snapshot duration with the ability to limit what is produced for Environment Map
- Ability to see lineage at the server level
