Two questions on lineage aspects: 1. what's the difference between DatasetUpstreamLineage vs. UpstreamLineage aspects? 2. Why is DownstreamLineage aspect not part of DatasetAspect (Link)?
e
I know the naming is a bit confusing, but
UpstreamLineage
is for dataset-level lineage, while
DatasetUpstreamLineage
is for the upcoming field-level lineage feature. See https://github.com/linkedin/datahub/blob/master/docs/rfc/active/1841-lineage/field%20level%20lineage.md for more details.

oh! okay; then, will there be
DatasetDownstreamLineage
as well?
e
Yes it'll be eventually added. @ambitious-battery-33996 is driving that effort.

got it, perfect. Thanks for quick response Mars. Appreciate it.
