SQLFlow is a cloud service which generates data-lineage and an interactive diagram showing data flows and dependencies of SQL code from their existing data warehouses and relational databases.
Data professionals benefit from transformation of SQL code into data-lineage maps as it replaces the need to perform manual code analysis.
The SQLFlow service can be accessed via web browser or REST API or setup on your own server. The user submits existing SQL code to SQLFlow, SQLFlow processes the SQL code and layout an interactive diagram of data flows with added productivity features.
