US Patent 10545979 Maintaining data lineage to detect data events

History for data objects may be maintained to detect data events. An indication of an Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) process applied to one or more source data objects to generate one or more transformed data objects may be received. History for the source data objects may be updated to include the transformed data objects and the ETL process that generated the transformed data objects. An evaluation of the update may be performed to determine whether an event associated with the data lineage is triggered. If the event is triggered, a notification of the event may be sent to one or more subscribers for the event.
