Ascend documentation
Ascend is the unified data engineering platform that simplifies how teams build and manage data pipelines. Ascend automates the hard parts of pipeline development so you can build reliable data products in minutes, not months, and focus on insights, not infrastructure.
Data engineers, analysts, and scientists all benefit from our Flex Code approach, which lets you work visually in our intuitive GUI or directly in a code-first environment. This flexibility means less time spent on technical details and more time delivering value.
Powered by an Intelligence Core that combines Unified Metadata Collection, DataAware™ Automation, and Integrated AI Agents, Ascend makes data engineering not just efficient, but truly delightful ✨.
