Verify Data in Postgres 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 startedIntegration with Postgres allows users to verify data found in the database through Secoda, ensuring data governance at scale. Postgres, an advanced open-source relational database management system, supports SQL language and provides a range of functionalities through the psql command-line interface. Users can connect to databases, list databases, switch between schemas, list users and their roles, retrieve user information, list functions, and describe tables and schemas. With the ability to query and analyze data, Postgres supports various SQL syntax versions. Verifying resources, such as metrics, dictionary terms, documents, and tables, is crucial for data governance goals. By automatically tagging datasets as 'audit-verified' when changes are recorded and verified against governance policies, organizations can maintain an auditable record for accountability.
PostgreSQL provides a powerful arsenal for safeguarding data integrity within your database. At its core lie data types and constraints. Assigning appropriate data types like integers for quantities or timestamps for dates ensures data is stored in a consistent and usable format. Constraints like `NOT NULL` enforce data completeness, while `CHECK` constraints allow you to define custom rules for valid values. Imagine a table storing product information – a `CHECK` constraint could guarantee prices are always positive.
PostgreSQL goes beyond basic constraints with features like triggers. These are functions that automatically execute in response to specific database events like insertions or updates. You can leverage triggers to perform advanced data validation. For instance, a trigger could verify a new email address adheres to a specific format before allowing the data to be inserted. By combining data types, constraints, and triggers, PostgreSQL empowers you to establish a robust data validation framework, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of your information.
Secoda integration with Postgres allows you to verify data. An Automation consists of Triggers and Actions. Triggers activate the workflow based on specific schedules. Actions include filtering and updating metadata, among other operations. You can stack actions to create customized workflows. Secoda enables bulk updates to metadata in Postgres.
Secoda offers a seamless integration with Postgres, allowing users to verify data through the platform. By consolidating data catalog, lineage, documentation, and monitoring, Secoda serves as a comprehensive data management platform. With its AI-powered data governance capabilities, Secoda ensures efficient and reliable data verification for Postgres users.
