Metaphor’s Impact Analysis feature allows users to see the technical lineage of all downstream objects and observe behavioral signals of usage statistics and social signals of who in the organization cares about the data. Individuals who ‘Follow’ data assets or have mentioned it in any knowledge card or document can easily be identified so that they can be contacted for inputs before changes are made.

Asset Contacts are a highly flexible way to associate authoritative individuals with any type of asset (datasets, dashboards, documents, etc). Users may use the typical Data Stewardship model and assign Stewards to tables, or they can assign Technical or Business Owners. Organizations building a Data Mesh architecture can also use Data Product Managers to define points of contact associated with an asset.
Users may also choose to assign Slack channels or email addresses as catchall locations users can reach out to.
