Data Notebook use cases

This topic describes how different personas can use Data Notebook.

Business or Data Analysts

You may often need to link business lineage and information about the data you have to the intricate details of the raw technical data itself. This could be vital for conducting complex analyses that require a profound understanding of both the data and the business context. Data Notebook can bridge the gap between business insights and technical data by allowing you to link your analysis directly to the real-world data. This facilitates validation, sharing, and reuse of data.

Data Engineers

You can investigate and fix any production pipeline issues by querying the underlying data in a notebook. You can also document your findings in the notebook for auditing and collaboration purposes.

Data Stewards

When curating a new data set, you may often run queries in external data sources to validate the underlying data. Instead of relying on disparate tools and processes, you can use Data Notebook to query your data sources. Data Notebook eliminates the need to switch between various tools by offering a consolidated environment for the entire process.
