Imaginary example:
- I have a file
A on HDFS, and its lineage in Spline
- I want to copy
A to a different infrastructure (network, cluster, cloud, you name it), monitored by another independent Spline instance. And I don't want to loose the lineage of A
- Using Spline UI or CLI I dump
A's full lineage to a file and carry it with A to a new infrastructure
- There the lineage dump can be imported manually (again by using UI or CLI), or even automatically on the first Spline tracked read from
A.
