Techniques for visualizing dependencies in a data analytics system are described. In an embodiment, a visualization system may receive datasets and dataset dependency information for the datasets. The visualization system may receive a first type of analysis objects from a first analysis object system and dataset dependency information from an analysis object dependency service. The visualization system may receive a second type of analysis objects from a second analysis object system. The second type of analysis object may include a JSON representation of a set of operations that are applied during analysis such as a set of programming instructions. The visualization system may traverse and analyze the JSON representation to determine, for a given analysis object, one or more parent dependencies. The visualization system can then generate a graph of the datasets and analysis objects.
