A clip from the Atlan masterclass The Future of Data Governance, with Austin Kronz of Atlan. Raluca Alexandru of Forrester uses lineage to show how governance tools are changing for business users: technical and business lineage now split, the same processes presented differently, and automation that serves a group growing more active in governance.

0:00 Yeah, and you can see that in, like, in the changes that, that they have popped up more and more in the last year, I would say, in, in lineage, just to keep that example, into the tech— the, the definition of technical lineage and business lineage, right? So there was a need to split that up into having the business persona understand better and be able to control better the, the process that where they, they're involved in, and understand the impact that has on lineage, right?
0:25 So that separation for me, it's already a sign of maturity and, you know, going towards that sort of holy grail of data mesh type of world and where everything is integrated and where everybody understands what their role is. But the technical lineage and business lineage, that, that was something that, you know, really underlined the importance of having different... Well, the same data with the same processes, but then presented in different ways and with different accessibility options to actually influence how that process goes, right?

0:54 So that's a level of... And there's a lot of automation in there because, and I know you wanna go into the topic of low-code/no-code, of course, and how that serves the business persona, but that's a prime example, I think, of, of adjusting some of the data governance capabilities to serve that very important group of, of users that is, yeah, increasingly active into the data governance organization, so.
