Cross-platform by design. DataHub started at LinkedIn in 2019 to manage metadata at hyperscale. That foundation with column-level lineage across 150+ integrations, spanning your entire data estate is what makes trusted context possible. Context is only as good as the lineage underneath it, and lineage is only as good as its coverage.
