Enable Export of Hive Lineage from Manta to Alation

At Truist, we use Manta to scan and Analyze data elements across various technologies - such as Oracle, MSSQL, Db2 LUW and more - and then export that lineage to Alation for Governance and auditing. However, it appears Hive lineage is not currently supported for export.

Key Observations Include:

  1. There is no Alation export related scenario for any hive connections unlike other export supported technologies eg MSSQL, Oracle etc.

  2. There is no presence of hive technology Alation mapping in Manta admin ui configuration.

  3. Existing Manta documentation references limitations on exporting hive lineage to Alation but does not provide any timeline for future support.

Business Impact:

  1. Missing Hive lineage in Alation prevents data stewards from tracking data elements from one end to end, impacting data quality.

  2. This limitation also hinders efforts to identify potential upstream or downstream impacts with hive-based data flow.

Expected Outcome:

  1. Provide full support for Hive lineage exports.

  2. Hive based dataflow should be exported to Alation without errors or issue.
