# BoltPipeline > SQL in, certified pipelines out. BoltPipeline spans pipeline compilation, pre-deploy certification, column-level lineage, drift detection, and governance in one platform. ## Docs - [Plan, Enrich, Certify, Operate](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/peco): One lifecycle takes your SQL from upload to live data load — every check runs before the first row moves. - [DDL-First Pipelines](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/ddl-first-pipeline): Mix DDL and DML in one SQL file — schema changes are recognised, approved, and deployed separately from data loads. - [Impact Analyzer](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/impact-analyzer): Paste any SQL change and see which pipelines, tables, and dashboards break — before you deploy. - [Deploy Impact](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/deploy-impact): Every analyzed change becomes a numbered, durable Deploy Impact you can iterate on until breakage hits zero. - [Schema Drift Detection](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/schema-drift): Catch schema changes the moment they land — classified by impact, tied to lineage, and shown across environments. - [Data Profiling](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/profiling): Every active table is profiled on cadence across nine quality dimensions — sampled, cheap, and trusted. - [Data Preview](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/data-preview): See live rows from any source or target table in seconds — without the platform ever seeing your data. - [Operate Orchestrator](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/operate-orchestrator): Pipeline steps run in true parallel with dedicated connections, classified errors, and policy-driven retry. - [Operations Monitor](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/monitor): One sidebar item answers every on-call question — what's running, what failed, what drifted, what to fix first. - [Pipeline Ops Controls](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/pipeline-ops-controls): One operator cockpit lets you suspend, prioritise, chain, and bulk-action pipelines without leaving the list. - [Tasks and Pools](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/tasks-and-pools): Every job runs in a credential-isolated pool — slow profiles never block urgent loads, and the agent decides its own capacity. - [Crash-Safe Execution](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/wal-ledger): If the agent crashes mid-pipeline, it resumes from the exact step that was running — committed work is never repeated. - [Environment FQN Mapping](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/env-fqn-mapping): One logical table identity spans every environment — promotion, drift compare, and lineage stay continuous. - [Pipeline Promotion](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/promotion): Move a certified pipeline from dev to prod through a request-approve-execute workflow with separation of duties. - [Column-Level Lineage](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/lineage): One unified DAG covers pipelines, views, MVs, dynamic tables, and procedures — at column grain, before data moves. - [Asset Discovery](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/asset-discovery): Three cooperating tasks keep your catalog fresh within five minutes and reconciled within twenty-four hours. - [RBAC and Settings](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/rbac-and-settings): One permission engine drives every authorize check — and the UI renders only what the server says you can see. - [License Management](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/license-management): Every tenant has one active license; suspension, revocation, and expiry kill credentials in under a second. - [Notice Board](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/notice-board): One inbox for every platform-generated alert — agent down, license expiring, predictive risk breach — with dedup and audit. - [Token Blocklist](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/token-blocklist): When you press the revoke button, the stolen credential stops working in milliseconds — not in thirty minutes. - [Authentication](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/auth): Sign up, verify, log in, MFA, invite, reset — one identity engine handles staff and tenant users alike. - [Single Sign-On](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/sso-integration): Federate Azure AD, Okta, Google Workspace, or any OIDC or SAML provider — admins configure it in minutes. - [Agent Protocol](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/cc-agent-integration): The agent in your network speaks three mTLS channels to the platform — and never holds policy or makes decisions. - [Agent Runtime](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/agent-runtime): A stateless executor near your warehouse runs orchestration, profiling, and cataloging with six reliability primitives. - [Cloud-Agnostic Agent](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/agent-deployment): The same container runs on AWS, Azure, GCP, or a laptop — two volume mounts and one URL is the entire contract. - [GitHub Integration](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/github-integration): Install one app and every SQL pull request gets column-level lineage and blast-radius posted right on the PR. - [Observability](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/observability): One metrics stack tells you whether the platform is up, the fleet is healthy, and why a slow page is slow. ## Compare - [BoltPipeline vs dbt](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/dbt): BoltPipeline is a live-DB pipeline certification platform; dbt is a SQL transformation framework. Use both — keep dbt run, add BoltPipeline as the pre-deploy gate. - [BoltPipeline vs Monte Carlo](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/monte-carlo): BoltPipeline runs pre-deploy certification and column-level lineage; Monte Carlo runs post-deploy anomaly observability. Different layers of the same stack. - [BoltPipeline vs Anomalo](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/anomalo): BoltPipeline runs 30+ rule-based certification pre-deploy; Anomalo runs unsupervised statistical anomaly detection post-deploy. Different layers. - [BoltPipeline vs Collibra](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/collibra): BoltPipeline is a lineage-driven engineering platform with AST-level column lineage; Collibra is an enterprise data catalog and governance suite. Different layers. - [BoltPipeline vs Atlan](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/atlan): BoltPipeline is a lineage-driven engineering platform; Atlan is a modern data catalog with a strong asset-discovery UX. Different layers. - [BoltPipeline vs Snowflake Horizon](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/horizon-snowflake): BoltPipeline governs the pipeline that produces data; Horizon governs the data at rest inside Snowflake. Different layers — they pair. - [BoltPipeline vs Snowflake Tasks](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/snowflake-tasks): BoltPipeline emits the certified SQL and DDL; Snowflake Tasks runs it. Not competitive — BoltPipeline makes Tasks-run pipelines safer to ship. - [BoltPipeline vs Airflow](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/airflow): BoltPipeline produces certified pipeline artifacts; Airflow runs them. Not competitive — BoltPipeline reduces 'broken DAG at 3 AM' by certifying SQL before commit. - [BoltPipeline vs Datafold](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/datafold): BoltPipeline is a live-DB pre-deploy certification platform; Datafold is data-diff for CI. We BLOCK deploys via state machine; Datafold comments on PRs. - [BoltPipeline vs SQLMesh](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/sqlmesh): BoltPipeline is a live-DB certification + drift detection platform; SQLMesh is a dbt-alternative transformation framework with virtual envs. Use both. - [BoltPipeline vs Dagster](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/dagster): BoltPipeline is a SQL-pipeline compilation + certification platform; Dagster is an asset-centric orchestrator. Shared asset mental model, different layers. - [BoltPipeline vs Coalesce](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/coalesce): BoltPipeline is a SQL-first cert + drift platform with cert/drift/lineage shipped integrated. Coalesce is a visual + AI-copilot transformation tool that recently acquired SYNQ (Mar 2026) to assemble catalog + quality on top. - [BoltPipeline vs Unity Catalog](https://boltpipeline.ai/compare/unity-catalog): BoltPipeline does cross-warehouse pipeline certification + lineage; Unity Catalog does Databricks-native governance for data-at-rest. Different layers. ## Trust - [Platform Trust](https://boltpipeline.ai/platform/trust): How BoltPipeline keeps your data, identity, and pipelines safe. - [Security](https://boltpipeline.ai/company/security): Security posture, controls, and design principles. - [Compliance](https://boltpipeline.ai/company/compliance): Compliance certifications, attestations, and roadmap. ## Pricing - [Pricing](https://boltpipeline.ai/pricing): Plans, tiers, and what's included at each level. ## Contact - [Contact](https://boltpipeline.ai/contact): Talk to the BoltPipeline team — demo, trial, or enterprise enquiry.
