DataHub

DataHub maps your entire data ecosystem into a searchable, governed catalog where every table, pipeline, dashboard, and metric is discoverable and traceable from source to consumer. Originally built at LinkedIn to manage metadata at hyperscale and proven to handle 10 million+ assets and billions of relationships in production, the platform is now trusted by 3,000+ organizations including Netflix, Visa, Slack, and Pinterest. The Spring Java backend (GMS) exposes both GraphQL and OpenAPI REST endpoints, while the React frontend delivers an intuitive interface for searching, browsing, and governing data assets. The Python-based ingestion framework provides 80+ production-grade connectors extracting deep metadata from Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks, dbt, Airflow, Spark, Kafka, Looker, Tableau, Power BI, Superset, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Hive, Glue, S3, Iceberg, and Unity Catalog through pull-based scheduled crawls and push-based emission via Python and Java SDKs. Automatic table-level and column-level lineage detection uses SQL parsing with 97-99% accuracy, tracing data flows from ingestion pipelines through warehouses to BI dashboards. Real-time metadata streaming via Kafka keeps the catalog continuously synchronized as schemas evolve and pipelines execute. The governance layer provides business glossary management, tag propagation along lineage graphs, domain-based organization, and fine-grained access control policies. DataHub Actions triggers automated responses to metadata changes, enabling notifications, quality checks, and downstream workflows. Elasticsearch powers full-text search with faceted filtering across entities. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.
