Key Features and Functionality: - Automatic Synchronization: Maintains alignment with the underlying data schema, preventing discrepancies between the data and its documentation. - Customer-Specific Permissions: Allows tailored sharing of data dictionaries, enabling providers to grant access to specific slices of data for individual customers. - Comprehensive Data Profiling: Automatically calculates statistics such as coverage rates and cardinality, facilitating effective data quality tracking. - User-Friendly Sharing: Simplifies the process of sharing data dictionaries, akin to sharing a Google Doc, and provides visibility into when recipients have viewed the shared information. Primary Value and Problem Solved: Syndetic's Dynamic Data Dictionary addresses the challenges associated with static data documentation by offering a live, interactive platform that evolves alongside the data it describes. This ensures that data providers can convey the meaning and value of their datasets accurately and efficiently, reducing the need for manual updates and minimizing the risk of outdated or inconsistent information. By automating data profiling and facilitating seamless sharing, Syndetic enhances collaboration between data providers and their customers, streamlining the process of data understanding and utilization.
