Welcome to Endeca Developer Studio

Use Developer Studio to assemble and configure pipeline components for processing your data.

With Developer Studio, you can define:

Pipeline components for tasks such as loading, standardizing, joining, mapping, and exporting data.
Endeca properties and property attributes such as sort and rollup.
Dimensions and dimension values, including dimension hierarchy.
Precedence rules among dimensions that provide better control over your implementation's navigation flow.
Search configurations, including which properties and dimensions are available for search.
Dynamic business rules that allow you to promote certain records on your Web site using data-driven business logic. Dynamic business rules are used to implement merchandising and content spotlighting.
User profiles that tailor the content returned to an end-user based upon pre-configured rules.

Developer Studio uses a project file, with an .esp extension, that contains pointers to the XML files that support an instance configuration. Editing a project in Developer Studio edits these underlying files.

In addition to the features that allow you to build your instance configuration, Endeca Developer Studio provides access to Endeca Web-based tools (namely Endeca Workbench).

Note: A few features still require manual editing of the XML files. Those cases are noted in the documentation.
