help Marquez FAQ

What does Marquez do in a data platform?

Marquez collects, stores, and visualizes metadata about data jobs and transformations. Its lineage views help show how a dataset moves from an upstream source to downstream tables, reports, or models.

How does Marquez work with OpenLineage?

OpenLineage provides the standard event format, while Marquez acts as a service that consumes and visualizes those lineage events. This lets tools such as Airflow and Spark report metadata into one searchable system.

Is Marquez an open-source project?

Yes, Marquez is maintained as a public open-source project in the MarquezProject GitHub repository. The project is designed as a metadata service for data governance, quality monitoring, and performance analysis.

Does Marquez run data pipelines like Airflow does?

No, Marquez does not replace an orchestrator such as Apache Airflow or a transformation tool such as dbt. It records and displays what those systems did, including upstream and downstream relationships.
