Release Highlights

Buckle up, folks! v0.8.25 brings some very exciting (and highly-requested!) updates.

Notable UI-Based Features

  • UI-based Ingestion - as demoed in December Town Hall, we now support creating, configuring, scheduling, & executing batch metadata ingestion using the DataHub user interface. This makes getting metadata into DataHub easier by minimizing the overhead required to operate custom integration pipelines.
  • Data Domains - DataHub now supports grouping data assets into logical collections called Domains. Domains are curated, top-level folders or categories where related assets can be explicitly grouped. Read the guide here!
  • Data Containers are now supported! This is the physical grouping of entities, ex. a Schema is a container of 1 or more Datasets; a Dashboard is a container of 1 or more Charts.

Notable Metadata Model & Ingestion-Based Features

  • Data Quality test results are now supported in the DataHub metadata model. This is the first milestone toward surfacing Dataset & Column-level Data Quality results in the UI (read full scope of work here). Future releases will include a Great Expectations integration & UI support - we’re on track to complete this in Q1 as planned.
  • Avro files are now supported in the Data Lake File ingestion source
  • Ingest metadata from multiple instances of the same platform type. This has been a very common use case within the Community - you can now differentiate multiple instances of the same platform type! If you already have pre-existing entries, use the datahub migrate command to migrate them over to platform instances.
