> Apache Atlas 1.0 introduced relationships as first-class types. A relationship effectively 'injects' an attribute on the entities at each end. For example, assignment of a glossary term to an entity is captured by relationship AtlasGlossarySemanticAssignment (in 0000-Area0/0011-glossary_model.json). This relationship adds following attributes:
> - Referceable.meanings: set<AtlasGlossaryTerm>
> - AtlasGlossaryTerm.assignedEntities: set<Referenceable>
> This works fine as long as the entity-types involved in the relationship, or their sub-types don't have an attribute with the same name as the attribute injected by the relationships. Once such instance was reported by [~bolke], about relationship attribute DataSet.schema introduced by avro_schema_associatedEntities - which conflicts with spark_table.schema, since spark_table type is a sub-type of DataSet.
> Such name conflicts can be avoided by prefixing relationship-attribute names with a prefix like "r:".
