Mapping Leaf Level Node to a Higher Level Node

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We have a use case wherein we intend to link a Leaf Level Node in Manta to a Higher Level Node considering the functionality of process flow among the applications from different technologies.

Manta may already have an understanding of IFPC hierarchy but here is the same for everyone who’s following this ticket for reference, to be on same page.

 IFPC (Technology) >> Repository >> Project Folders >> Workflows >> Sessions >> Mappings >> Transformations

 For Control-M, we’ve already added more detail to Job_Name to the underlying Oracle DB scanned attributes, so that it isn’t the leaf node anymore.

 For Teradata, a Macro_Name is the leaf node under a database (Schema), since the underlying Table/View is auto linked by Manta through the scan.

 Coming to the use case that we’re trying to accomplish based on the information received from respective teams for end-to-end lineage visibility leveraging, Open Manta Extensions, we intend to manually link IFPC Workflow to Control-M Job_Name (Upstream) and Teradata Macro_Name (Downstream), which is like intermediate linking between Control-M and IFPC, while it is intermediate to leaf between IFPC and Teradata.

 Kindly let us know if any further clarification is needed in this regard

    Hi Eli,

    Based on our meeting from 04-Nov-2024, you've mentioned to review on a possible solution for this use case with IBM Product Engg team and provide an update on next steps to address it.

    Just wanted to check on when an outcome of the solution can be expected. Kindly advise.

    Thanks,

    Satish

    Hello Satish, @Guest

    The request to allow the creation of Table Level Lineage and also anything higher is something we very much want to add to the product.
    This feature is something we want to do but cannot currently commit to as the soonest it would be possible to add this to the product will be Q4 2025.
    We will keep this feature request open and keep you updated if this gets added to the committed roadmap.

    Thank You.
    Eli Carter.
