Dell Data Analytics Engine 443-e.15 reference documentation#

Dell Data Analytics Engine, powered by Starburst Enterprise platform (SEP) documentation consists of version-specific reference documentation and user guides that are up-to-date with the latest release. A listing of the contents of the documentation is available later in this document, as well as in the left-hand navigation, or in the three-line menu in the top bar.

Who do we write for?#

We write for users, who fall into one or more of the following three personas:

  • Data consumers query data through existing catalogs.

  • Data engineers create catalogs that connect data sources to SEP.

  • Platform administrators run and maintain the SEP cluster.
