This is a credit to the work we have put into creating the perfect tool to build end-to-end data maps. This award is a testament to the significance of the application and the brilliant team working so hard on it,” says Solidatus Co-Founder Philip Dutton, “Data lineage is becoming increasingly more important and having a tool which allows an organisation to gain clear insights into their data is essential. We’re seeing a shift of thinking taking place where organisations not only need to be compliant but also need to understand and gain value from their data. Solidatus brings control to an organisations’ data landscape, helping reduce their exposure to risk and improve their data economy. In the simplest form, it’s a data lineage discovery and visualisation tool that is uniquely engineered to allow any sized firm to correctly understand how data flows through their organisation.”
