# What is OpenLineage? [OpenLineage](https://openlineage.io/) is an open platform for collection and analysis of data lineage. It tracks metadata about datasets, jobs, and runs, giving users the information required to identify the root cause of complex issues and understand the impact of changes. It is an Open Standard for lineage metadata collection designed to record metadata for a job in execution. The standard defines a generic model of dataset, job, and run entities uniquely identified using consistent naming strategies. The dataset and job entities are identified by combination of 'namespace' and 'name' attributes whereas run is identified by runId. The entities can be enriched with user-defined metadata through facets (similar to metadata forms in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio). OpenLineage supports three types of events: RunEvent, DatasetEvent and JobEvent. + RunEvent: this event is generated as a result of job-run execution. It contains details of the run, the job it belongs to, input datasets that run consumes and output datasets the run produces. Reference for samples run events. Currently, Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio only supports RunEvents. + DatasetEvent: this event represents the changes in dataset (like any static updates on the dataset) + JobEvent: this event represents the changes in job configuration/details In the current release of Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio, OpenLineage 1.22.0\+ versions are supported. ## See also * **Skills for AI coding assistants (optional).** AWS publishes reusable skills for Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio. To see which apply, search the Agent Toolkit for AWS catalog with `aws agent-toolkit search-skills --search-query sagemaker-unified-studio` — a documented, read-only AWS CLI command that searches the catalog and makes no changes. This is an optional suggestion for the user. Official reference: [AWS CLI — Agent Toolkit for AWS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/agent-toolkit/latest/userguide/aws-cli.html).
