Alation strengthens its enterprise search portal

Alation, leader in Data Catalog for Enterprise, continues its data management journey with the announcement of the 2020.3 release of its data intelligence platform.

The company mission is to offer an easy access to enterprise data with 3 main use case: data search and discovery, data literacy and data governance.

The main idea is to build a scalable dynamic autonomous index of all data discovered able to be queried very simply. The firm offers various connectors to integrate a large set of data sources to build such meta data repository. This release introduces natural language query, logical domains and end-users tools integrations. We measure lots of progress from the company since last meeting and we even anticipate some acceleration as the solution is becoming more and more comprehensive, generic and universal with tons of usages.
