Data Lineage
Data Lineage is one of the most powerful features of DI Studio generated ETL. This tool queries it and makes a graphical output to help DI Developers, Data Modellers, and Business Analysts understand the data from both Source to Target and Target to Source.
It is possible to share the URL to any lineage diagram, and export in PNG, SVG and CSV formats. Lineage can be viewed forwards or backwards.
This feature is only available on the SAS 9 version of Data Controller.
Table Level
Table level lineage shows tables (colour coded per library) and associated jobs (with links to metadata definitions). The extraction method is built with proc metadata and runs extremely fast.
Column Level
Column level lineage shows the transformations and any business logic applied to each variable during the flow. Data items are distinguished between files, database tables, and SAS datasets. The extraction is a little slower than table level lineage due to the additional detail, however the impact is lessened for second and subsequent requests thanks to backend caching.
Email Alerts
Adding Email Alerts in Data Controller is a case of updating the MPE_ALERTS table (to say which alerts you wish to send) and the MPE_EMAILS table (only if your emails are not stored in metadata)
Deploying Data Controller
The SAS 9 evaluation version of the Data Controller comes packaged in a single SPK, which can be deployed in under 30 seconds!

1 - Excel uploads. Data Controller will let you drag a spreadsheet into any target table without having to specify variable formats etc in advance. Changes are routed through the usual approval process with audit trail.
2 - Audit trail with original excel. Download a copy of the exact excel that was uploaded.
Locked Datasets
In unix environments, when attempting to edit a locked table, users are notified with regard to which PID contains the lock.
