Lineage
Alvin's lineage is one of the things that sets us apart. The lineage is layered, meaning that you can add different types of overlays, like Google maps for data lineage. This is useful for many cases - for instance the historical row count layer can be a quick way to investigate any anomalies upstream of a table with off-putting row counts.
In addition to this, there is built in functionality to "skip" entities in the graph, while still showing the lineage - let's say you don't want to see Looker Explores, but you still want to see the lineage between a table and a dashboard!
