Overview
Axon can display Unison search results as an interactive map. Maps are a graphical representation of the relationships between objects across different facets. You can apply different overlays, exclude nodes, and group nodes to view more or less information on the map. Insight maps are not limited in scope to any particular facet or object type.
You can view the following types of maps in Axon:
- System Lineage: Displays system objects and how information flows across them. The solid lines between systems represent the linking attributes. The dotted lines between systems represent a system interface. Axon displays the system interface information along the dotted lines. If a system is assigned to a segment that you cannot access, the lineage displays a lock sign for the system.
- Data Lineage: Displays data set objects and how information flows across them. Axon displays the Data Set Lineage view only when you have described Linking Attributes. If a data set is assigned to a segment that you cannot access, you can see a lock sign for the data set.
- Multi-Node: Each node is an object type from a limited range of facets such as system, process, project, and stakeholders. Axon displays connections between these objects in the map. You can modify the map by controlling the Information menu that appears upon mouseover.
