Metadata-driven lineage has transformed our data governance and delivers flexible integration
While Ab Initio Co>Operating System has positive attributes, I find that certain features can sometimes be difficult to understand. When I have too many import feeds opened, they can conflict with each other. If I'm using two separate import feeds for running my codes and they contain the same code inside, they experience conflicts, which creates difficulties. I believe this should not occur because it requires me to clear the work queue to run my import feed. I don't believe there are any missing features in Ab Initio Co>Operating System so far, but I would appreciate a better search feature. The global search is excellent, but a more in-depth search feature that allows me to search within the feeds or assets would be beneficial.

You can build your model with a graphical interface using UML. Apart from some scripting, there is no coding.
An area of improvement is the stopping and starting of services from the Bridge server console. The only way to test services on the Bridge is to have them scheduled so that they run at a specific moment in time. It is, at this time, not possible to trigger this by hand from the console. It is possible to trigger it via the analyze tool, which is used to trace the service. It would be nice to have a simple way to test services without having to schedule them. This is no problem for a developer, but from the functional consultant point of view, the functional consultant needs to test the service and determine if it meets the requirements. It's not a big issue, but it would be nice to have.
