1. Apparatus for leveraging machine learning (“ML”) to selectively update stored code with updated code, the apparatus comprising:
machine readable memory configured to store a plurality of technical data element identifiers (“TDEIs”);
a computer configured to receive a query for data lineage information corresponding to a first TDEI associated with a first data lineage source;
a processor configured to leverage ML to:
identify a level of commonality between the first TDEI and a second TDEI, wherein the level of commonality is greater than both a threshold length percentage and a threshold alpha-numerical matching percentage;
identify data lineage information for the second TDEI corresponding to a second data lineage source;
determine whether the first TDEI and the second TDEI share a threshold level of commonality, wherein the threshold level of commonality is greater than a threshold number of alpha-numerical matches associated with both the first TDEI and the second TDEI;
following a determination that the first TDEI and the second TDEI share a level of commonality that is greater than the threshold level of commonality, identify one or more mismatches between the first TDEI and the second TDEI, a mismatch being a difference in an alpha-numerical symbol in both the first TDEI and the second TDEI; and
determine whether a threshold number of mismatches exists between the first TDEI and the second TDEI; and
an electronic switch configured to:
in response to a determination that a threshold number of mismatches does not exist between the first TDEI and the second TDEI, running a script to access a plurality of data files and to overwrite data lineage information in the data files, and generating a display on a graphical user interface (“GUI”) to prompt a user to overwrite the first TDEI with the second TDEI in a storage location containing the first TDEI, wherein the overwriting accelerates the running of the script and reduces a bandwidth of the computer;
in response to a determination that a threshold number of mismatches exists between the first TDEI and the second TDEI, maintain the second TDEI in the storage location containing the first TDEI; and
in response to a failure of the electronic switch to output a determination regarding a threshold number of mismatches existing between the first TDEI and the second TDEI, taking remedial action by generating a display on the GUI to prompt the user to input a new search query.
