- Data discovery: Alation allows users to quickly and easily find the data they need. It uses machine learning to suggest relevant data to users based on their search queries and previous interactions with the data.
- Data understanding: Alation provides detailed information about the data, including its origin, purpose and quality. This helps users to better understand the data and make informed decisions.
