Your existing data flows contain thousands of unknown, untracked dependencies. Foundational automatically maps these into rules and policies you can control.
Create automated rules and custom policies to keep everyone aligned
around data changes - from producers, to consumers and stakeholders
AUTOMATED CONTRACTS
Foundational is a new way of building and managing data: We make it easy for everyone in the organization to understand, communicate, and create code for data.
Foundational supports SQL, Python, and Scala. We specialize in analyzing common data development frameworks such as dbt, Spark, Airflow, SQLAlchemy, and many others. Ask us to learn more.
We provide a native GitHub integration through the GitHub App Marketplace. GitLab support is coming soon.
We detect schema changes and semantic issues through code analysis before the code is merged, allowing us to flag violations, whether explicitly defined by a contract, or implied by existing dependencies.
We currently focus on changes to schema and data freshness, which can all be evaluated from code and metadata. Foundational doesn’t access the data itself.
Foundational can be set up in less than an hour, by authenticating us to the relevant GitHub repositories and to any BI tools. No code changes or integration work are needed.
