Locales and their effect on the user interface

The locale determines the language in which to display the user interface. It can also affect the format of displayed data values.

Big Data Discovery is configured with a default locale as well as a list of available locales.

Each user account also is configured with a preferred locale, and the user menu includes an option for users to select the locale to use.

In Big Data Discovery, when a locale is selected:
  • User interface labels display using the locale.
  • Display names of attributes display in the locale.

    If there is not a version for that locale, then the default locale is used.

  • Data values are formatted based on the locale.
