Using the Assistant
The onboarding survey you completed the first time you logged in to the Actian Data Platform stores your answers to these questions:
• Role – tasks you are typically responsible for
• Criteria – cloud criteria you want to evaluate
• Current Solutions – which data platform(s) you currently use
• Analytics Solutions – data analytics platforms you will connect to
• Data Size – size of dataset you will use
Your answers tailor the Assistant to best help you with the tasks you need to successfully get started with the Actian Data Platform.
