MDM

ONE-63423: The AI matching option in the MDM Web App menu is visible regardless of the feature status.

14.5.0

Platform Changes

Java 21 Upgrade

ONE components are now shipped with and support Java 21. All servers running ONE components need to be upgraded to Java 21 when upgrading self-managed, on-premise deployments to version 16.0.0.

Java 21 changes how the \b metacharacter behaves in ONE expressions. The metacharacter now matches ASCII word characters by default, like \w, so you might need to adjust regular expressions such as find or matches in ONE expressions to get the intended output.

For more information about the change and details about how to work around it, see Regular expressions.

ONE

Ataccama Lineage Scanners

Version 16 comes with a completely refreshed Ataccama Lineage, our native data lineage solution that lets you explore every step of your data’s journey, from creation to consumption.

You can now scan a wider array of metadata objects across a larger palette of data sources. This means you get to visualize your entire data pipeline, from data sources to ETL jobs and data destinations, including all dependencies and transformations.

Use Ataccama Lineage to better understand your data and resolve issues faster as well as easily locate and track data to ensure regulatory compliance with data protection policies.

To find out more, see Lineage.

How do I run Ataccama Lineage?

The service is available as a built-in module in ONE for sources directly accessible from Ataccama Cloud and as a standalone application running on Docker Compose for other deployment types. In addition, the standalone lineage scanner is backwards compatible and can be used to import lineage metadata to v14 LTS and v15 LTS of the platform.

What’s new in the UI?

All your lineage assets are now conveniently displayed on the Lineage Assets screen in Knowledge Catalog.

Lineage assets

To get a fuller picture of your data flow and how certain data points were calculated, you can view the data transformation context directly in the web application as well as apply data classification or data quality and anomaly detection overlays for instant insights.

Transformation context
DQ & anomaly detection overlays

To get started, create a scan plan defining details about your data source and which data you want to extract. Next, run the scan and import the results to ONE.

BigQuery Pushdown Processing

BigQuery SQL Pushdown Processing is now available. Run profiling and data quality evaluation as an SQL pushdown workload directly in BigQuery and benefit from enhanced security and performance.

For more details about how pushdown processing works and how to set it up for your connection, see BigQuery Pushdown Processing.

Review Workflow on SQL Catalog Items

You can now set up a review workflow for SQL catalog items, the same way as for other types of catalog items. This way, you can prevent accidental changes to SQL catalog items and ensure that the asset owners properly review any modifications.

Improved Usability in Data Observability Dashboards

In the issues table on Data Observability dashboards, you can now search for catalog items by their name.

MDM

Dynamic Logging Configuration in MDM Web App

Dynamically adjust logging levels in MDM Web App for issue identification and debugging purposes. To use the functionality, you need to have special permissions.

The new option is available on the Logging Configuration tab under Administration in the Admin Center.

These changes are temporary and are not saved after the application is restarted.

MDM Available in Spanish

You can now change the language of the application to Spanish.

  • ONE-67389: Improvements to Spanish localization.

  • ONE-67166: Added missing color for navigation background in certain themes.

  • ONE-67995: When assigning stewardship to multiple rules at once, all available groups are correctly displayed.

  • ONE-67053: When creating a rule from a BigQuery catalog item, with pushdown processing enabled, rule debugging works as expected.

Initial release
  • ONE-64935: In reconciliation projects, scheduled projects no longer fail to run due to exclusivity. Now, if a job fails, the failure reason is recorded in the Processing Center.

  • ONE-64722: Fixed the issue with running monitoring projects when anomaly detection was turned off in Global Settings > Profiling and at the same time enabled on attribute level on a catalog item in the monitoring project. Now, in such situations, no anomaly jobs are started and the monitoring project run continues, instead of getting stuck.

  • ONE-63580: In Data Observability dashboards, after the Configure data freshness option is turned on for the first time, the option no longer gets automatically disabled and the Freshness widget is correctly shown on the Data Observability dashboard.

  • ONE-63543: If you delete a monitoring project and then try to see its detail, the screen informing you that you are looking at a deleted item loads correctly.

  • ONE-63437: Filters set on Data Observability dashboards are not reset after visiting the Data observability configuration screen.

  • ONE-63431: Search field in the New freshness group dialog in data freshness configuration functions correctly when looking for a specific catalog item.

  • ONE-61776: Fixed the issue where it was not possible to see monitoring project results because the project remained in the running state in the UI, despite finishing successfully in DPM. The issue was caused by adding the same catalog item twice to the same monitoring project, which is no longer possible.

  • ONE-61167: Data freshness anomaly detection jobs are not blocked by simultaneously running big jobs.

  • ONE-61104: It is not possible to use duplicate condition Explanation when creating a new DQ evaluation rule using the quick DQ rule creation flow.

  • ONE-60056: After selecting +1 in the Applied on column, the Detailed results widget on the monitoring project Report tab displays all attributes to which a multi-attribute rule has been applied.

  • ONE-56492: If a data source has pushdown enabled, the source Data Quality and Data Observability (Issues table > Recommended column) tabs no longer display the Load failed records to ONE Data or Load failed records option. Loading failed records to ONE Data is a post-processing action, and these are not supported on sources with pushdown enabled.

  • ONE-63170: If a task references a deleted entity, the task card shows the Entity not found error message.

  • ONE-62951: You can select only published assets when establishing parent-child relationships between entities.
