What is Atlan?

Atlan is a modern data collaboration workspace (like Github for engineering or Figma for design). By acting as a virtual hub for data assets ranging from tables and dashboards to models & code, Atlan enables teams to create a single source of truth for all their data assets, and collaborate across the modern data stack through deep integrations with tools like Slack, BI tools, data science tools and more.

Key capabilities:

  • Search, catalog and browse data assets (tables, BI dashboards etc).
  • Giving data assets a profile – auto data quality profiling, wikis etc.
  • Enable collaboration – link sharing, chat plugin, integrations with BI tools etc.
  • Data governance – Auto PII, granular access control, auto create column level lineage etc.

Atlan - Metadata Management

Incentivized

Inside Sales Representative in Sales at Lucid Sofware (501-1000 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My team uses Atlan to define a flexible set of metadata - including measuring the quality of said data. Atlan is also a partner of ours so we use it to integrate with our own tool. It also enables the team to automate manual and high-risk tasks to make them error-free as much as possible. In terms of scope, I only know that our sales, CSM, and CX teams use it for similar uses. Our business may use it to a larger scope than that.

Pros

  • Extensive and seemless integrations
  • Tons of automation (in a good way)
  • Extremely user-friendly and intuitive to navigate

Cons

  • API documentation could be improved
  • Support team could be quicker in their response
  • Not a lot of "help" type information users can self-access

Most Important Features

  • Ingtegrations
  • Dashboards
  • UI design

Return on Investment

  • Atlan has certainly saved time and money by consolidating our metadata sets
  • Integrations with Amazon and Tableau have definetely sped up our time to value
