About the Data Studio Manager

The Data Studio Manager is an Incorta Premium Feature that allows users to easily create Materialized Views (MVs) for their data using a simple drag-and-drop interface.

With Data Studio, users can perform various transformations on their data without complex coding, by connecting a series of analytical steps called Recipes. Starting with the base table loaded into Incorta, the data undergoes a series of transformations in which each step applies specific recipes to refine, shape, and analyze the data. This streamlined progression ensures that data seamlessly transitions from its initial state to a refined, actionable form within Data Studio.

Data Studio Manager Access Permissions

Only an admin can enable Data Studio within the Cluster Management Console (CMC). For more information, refer to Enabling the Data Studio.
