Apache Atlas lineage graph creation

avatar

Hi,

I have the atlas technical user guide which speaks about architecture and APIs. However, i want to know if there are specific tutorials or documents which describe how Apache Atlas generate the JSON for the lineage graph and how the storage into HBase works.

Thanks in advance

This resource gives you an overview of atlas architecture (section 1.2) and restful apis (section 6) https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.5.3/bk_data-governance/content/ch_hdp_data_gove...

This gives you tutorials http://hortonworks.com/apache/atlas/#tutorials

[UPDATE DEC 9]

Here is an atlas user's guide that provides good details:

(Not sure if this is what you are referring to in your question)

Thanks for your answer but this is not really what i need.

I want to know how really Atlas transform entities into graph model using the graph engine and then how it stores this graph into Hbase using Titan.

Let's take an example, when i create entities, i want to know how atlas transform them into graph model. Also, for data lineage graph, i want to know how it is constructed.

This has a bit more of what you are looking for: http://www.slideshare.net/hortonworks/data-governance-atlas-7122015

But to get down to the technical details you seek ... you will have to go to the source code: https://github.com/apache/incubator-atlas
