Unity Catalog
Tables, columns, comments, tags, keys and grants.
Read Unity Catalog into one governed layer
Unity Catalog is the catalogue. A metric view is the contract you define once. Genie is the question surface it feeds. TabTotal reads all three, read-only, and writes nothing.
Governance arrives from the catalogue
Tables, columns, comments, tags, keys and grants all arrive on the first sync. They are read, never retyped.
- What the catalogue already records is what the layer holds
- Tags and keys carried through as governance evidence
- Where a permission is missing, it says so
Real column level lineage
The system tables give real column edges. Trace one column change to the dashboards that rely on it.
- Column edges read from the system tables
- The banner names the grain that completed, and what completed it
- Table level is never presented as field level
Your own contract writes the query
A metric view defines a measure once. TabTotal keeps its own copy of that definition and writes the query from it, using your own names. The number you read is the number in the warehouse.
- Every name checked against the stored contract
- A query that mixes warehouses is refused
- Read-only. The query goes out and nothing is written back
