What's New ✨

Hex Integration

Hex is a powerful tool for data teams to query, transform and visualize data. With our new integration with Hex, data teams can how get full end-to-end visibility to understand what data is feeding into Hex projects, and understand the full impact of upstream data model changes on analysis in Hex.

Using or exploring Hex? !

Impact Score

Today, Select Star’s popularity summarizes usage score of the data asset. It helps you to understand if the asset is well-used or trusted in the organization, or if it should be avoided.

We’re introducing a new Select Star metric called impact score. Impact score combines lineage and popularity to give a new insight that helps you understand the total downstream impact of a data asset. By combining popularity along with the usage of it’s downstream dependencies, the impact score gives you one metric to look at to understand if it’s safe to deprecate or can be skipped in a migration.

The Impact Score insight is available on both the Table and Column level for customers on enterprise plans.

What’s Improved ➕
