What are Datasets❓
- What if you can add files to a
folderthat pushes data automatically to Redshift or AuroraMySQL or S3Athena? - What if new files added to a
foldercan append or reload to Redshift or AuroraMySQL or S3Athena? - What if you can query the files added to a
folderusing query engine or use automatically generated JDBC Connection String? - What if you automatically profile the data as you add them to a
folder? - What if you automatically perform data quality checks on files being added to a
folder? - What if you can automatically detect malware and quarantine automatically as we add files to a
folder? - What if the files are automatically deleted up with an expiry date set in a
folder? - What if you can apply AI/ML (ML Model, Entity Recognizer) on files (structured or unstructured) in a
folderand view AI/ML results? - What if you can enable deepsearch on the files in a
folderusing AWS Kendra ? - What if you automatically convert file formats (xlsx to csv) as you dump them to a
folder? - What if you control access to the files in a
folderfor a specific user or a group automatically?
Too good to be true? That magical folder exists, and we call it Dataset in Amorphic. 🤩
What are Domains?
- Each Dataset is registered to a Domain.
- Domain is nothing but a database/schema in the database world.
- Domain may refer to the specification of the type of business/industry/purpose or other.
- This will help the user maintain/segregate between different datasets.
What are Views?
- Amorphic views are created to restrict access to a specific group of people or to create reports
- Views are created on top of the datasets.
- Views can be materialized or standard. Materialized views can be refreshed manually or automatically.
