Identify orphaned data in BigQuery with Secoda. Learn more about how you can automate workflows to turn hours into seconds. Do more with less and scale without the chaos.
Get startedOne important task in data cleanup practices is to identify orphaned data in BigQuery. Orphaned data refers to data that no longer has an assigned team or user. It is important to identify and tag this data for review. By doing so, it helps prevent data integrity issues and optimize storage use. Additionally, it enhances system performance and ensures accurate data analysis and reporting processes.
To identify unassigned data in BigQuery and flag it for review, Secoda can be used to automate the process. Secoda is an integration platform that allows you to create workflows using Triggers and Actions. Triggers activate the workflow and can be set on a schedule, such as hourly or daily. Actions perform various operations, such as filtering and updating metadata, to create customized workflows. With Secoda, bulk updates to metadata in BigQuery can be performed efficiently, making it easier to tag unassigned data for review.
Secoda serves as a valuable tool for data teams looking to enhance their data enablement practices by integrating with BigQuery. By leveraging Secoda's comprehensive data management platform, companies can consolidate their data catalog, lineage, documentation, and monitoring. This integration with BigQuery enables data teams to efficiently maintain their trust scorecards and effectively scale their data enablement practices.
