Security — Data Management
Monitor and manage internal database storage for exception data, snapshots, and ingested datasets.
Overview
Data Management gives administrators a centralised view of all internal database tables generated by Data Trust — including reconciliation exception data, validation exception data, query chain snapshots, and ingested data. From here you can monitor storage usage, review table sizes, and selectively delete data categories to free up space.
Navigating to Data Management
Figure 1: Security › Data Management navigation
In the left sidebar under Security, click Data Management to open the data storage monitoring page.
Data Management Page — Recon. Scenario Exception Data
Figure 2: Data Management — Recon. Scenario Exception Data
The Data Management page opens with a row of category summary cards at the top, each showing the number of tables and total storage used for that category. Clicking a card filters the table below to show only that category's records. The currently selected card is highlighted in green.
The table lists: Table Name, Schema Name, RD Object Name, Created On, Data Category, Rows, and Used Space (MB). Here the view is filtered to Recon. Scenario Exception Data — the exception tables generated when reconciliation scenarios are run.
Viewing Validation Scenario Exception Data
Figure 3: Data Management — Validation Scenario Exception Data
Clicking the Validation Scenario Exception Data card filters the table to show only exception tables created by validation scenario runs. Each row shows the table name, row count, and disk space consumed. Use this view to identify large exception datasets that may need to be purged after review.
Viewing Query Chain Snapshot Data
Figure 4: Data Management — Query Chain Snapshot Data
Clicking the Query Chain Snapshot Data card shows all snapshot tables captured during Query Chain executions. Snapshot tables can grow very large over time. Review the Rows and Used Space (MB) columns to identify tables that are safe to remove. Select individual rows and use the Delete button in the toolbar to remove unwanted snapshot data.
