Show HN: Quilt – manage data like code

Wow - this looks like it would be really useful for us, and fits perfectly with our existing processes. I am building out the data analytics function on the Internal Audit team at Uber, and one of our challenges is that we have to pull and manage data from different business systems, and be able to track which version of a data set a report/analysis was run against.

It would be really cool if quilt could generate documentation for datasets, even if it was just column names/types. One of the issues we have is keeping track of all of the data "assets" people have pulled or created.

We're definitely planning to make column names and types more easily accessible and searchable. It'd be great to learn more about what information and metadata would be most useful to you. We also have an on-prem version we're rolling out with a couple of pilot customers in case that's helpful.
