Atlan unveiled a complete redesign and slate of new integrations, capabilities, and partnerships to help data teams activate their metadata
Atlan, the active metadata platform for modern data teams, announced that it has launched a new version of its product built around active metadata. With this, Atlan is pioneering a new idea of data discovery, cataloging, and governance while transforming the role that metadata can play in the modern data stack.
โThis new version of our product was deeply motivated and battle-tested by our customersโ
โAt Atlan, weโve always been committed to helping data teams work together better,โ said Prukalpa Sankar, Co-Founder of Atlan. โWe started by building a great collaboration hub for data teams, using metadata to build trust and democratize data. For the last year, weโve been working to take our product to a whole new level. Weโre so excited to share it with the world and help data teams everywhere achieve their dream of an intelligent data stack.โ

Atlan has been working on the new version of their product for over a year, including a complete redesign and a slate of new features around active metadata. This is the foundation of an intelligent data platform, one where metadata feeds back into and enriches the entire data stack.
- Personalization: Since every user works with data differently, Atlan can now be customized to every user persona, business domain, and data project with new Personas, Purposes, and granular filtering options.
- Embedded collaboration: New integrations and features โ like saving Slack conversations and filing Jira tickets from Atlan, getting Atlan business definitions and workflow alerts in Slack, and viewing relevant metadata from a BI dashboard โ keep context from getting siloed and help users achieve flow in daily work.
- Intelligence via automated bots: Whether itโs manual quality checks for important reports or updates to GPDR classifications, the new Atlan Marketplace helps reduce routine, manual data work with automated workflows. Users can now use out-of-the-box bots or build their own automations through an open framework.
This new product also includes significant improvements to existing features and integrations, such as the Visual Query Builder for code-less SQL queries, increasingly intuitive and resilient column-level lineage, and context-rich integrations with modern tools like Slack, Jira, and Chrome.
As part of this update, Atlan has also announced deep partnerships withย Snowflakeย (including recognition as the first data catalog validated as a Snowflake Ready Technology Partner) andย Databricksย (including a native integration with Unity Catalog to provide end-to-end, column-level lineage), and other leaders in the modern data stack.
