Data Platform

The Data Platform section tracks cost, usage, ownership, allocation, and optimization across data compute and storage.

Pages

  • Overview
  • Warehouses & Clusters
  • Pipelines & Jobs
  • Queries
  • Tables & Datasets
  • Optimization

Use the Data Platform pages

  1. Open Data Platform > Overview and confirm that a platform source is connected.
  2. Review KPI cards and coverage notices.
  3. Open the entity page that matches the investigation.
  4. Filter the table and review Name, Type, Platform, Provider, Cost, Change, Owner, Allocation, Recommendation, and Action.
  5. Open Optimization to review supported recommendations.

Use Warehouses & Clusters for compute assets and idle time; Pipelines & Jobs for execution activity and ownership; Queries for expensive, frequent, inefficient, or high-scan patterns; and Tables & Datasets for storage, scan, growth, and table-level cost drivers.

Empty and partial states

The UI distinguishes:

  • No data platforms connected
  • Ingest pending
  • No data for this selection
  • Access restricted
  • Data Platform data is temporarily unavailable
  • Partial coverage

Use Connect Data Platform when offered. If ingestion is pending, wait for the source to finish before treating an empty table as a problem.

Best practices

  • Assign owners to expensive warehouses, pipelines, queries, and datasets.
  • Compare cost change with workload activity.
  • Review optimization actions with the data-platform owner.
