The Data Civilizer System
Summary: DATA CIVILIZER builds a linkage graph to discover relevant enterprise datasets and join paths, federates execution across heterogeneous stores via a polystore, and integrates cleaning into query processing. Adds a workflow engine for flexible, update-aware pipelines. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
