Data storage

Aunsight Data Services stores data in two forms:

  • Warehouses hold structured data — tables of rows and columns, queryable with SQL.
  • Buckets hold unstructured data — arbitrary files and folders, like an object store or filesystem.

Each form comes in a few variants depending on where the data lives and who owns it — local (inside ADS), remote (an external source system), and user (scoped to a user or a pipeline module's working space).

  • Warehouses — structured, tabular storage; local, remote, user, and accelerated warehouses
  • Buckets — unstructured file storage; local, remote, and user buckets
