Overview
AcrylData provides Acryl Cloud, a metadata platform that combines a data catalog with data observability to help data teams organize, understand, and use their data. It ingests metadata via push and pull methods, continuously monitors data quality in real time, and automatically detects anomalies to enable fast issue resolution. The platform also runs automated metadata tests, clarifies asset ownership, sends streamlined alerts, and provides time-based data lineage to trace root causes, offering clear visibility and faster resolutions. Its goal is to help teams monitor the health of datasets and pipelines in real time, reduce confusion, and operate on a subscription or usage-based pricing model.
