The Data Set Manager provides options add, remove, or load a full data set within a project and also to enable or disable links among multiple data sets in a project.
Loading the full data set in a project
After you add a data set to a project, you can choose to load the full data set into the project. This is useful for comprehensive data analysis and building a BDD application. Remember that without this full data load, Studio displays a sampled data set of approximately 1 million records if the full data set is larger than 1 million records.
Configuring a project data set for incremental updates
To prepare your data set for an incremental update, you must first load a full data set and provide a record identifier so that Studio can determine the incremental changes to apply during the update.
Converting a project to a BDD Application
A BDD Application is a logical designation of a project that contains one or more data sets that you transform, update, and maintain for long-lasting data analysis, reporting, and sharing. In this release, you can think of an application as a production-quality project. This topic describes the high-level workflow of converting a project into a BDD application and provides pointers to more detailed instructions as necessary.
Removing a data set from a project
You can have any number of data sets associated with a project. If a data set is no longer useful in a particular project, you can remove the data set from that project. This removal affects only the active project. It does not affect any other projects that a data set may be added to.
