A set of execution profiles are available in the Actian preferences. These execution profiles let you tune DataFlow engine settings for each profile and associate them with a particular workflow. When the workflow is executed, the engine settings of the selected profile are used.

You can create execution profiles to allow executing workflows on different cluster instances. They can also be used to set up proxy information for network communications.

Several execution profiles are provided by default. These default profiles can be used, modified, or deleted. For more information about creating and managing execution profiles, see Actian Profiles.
