What are Data Sources

In Alpana, data preparation happens in Data Sources.

Each Data Source prepares a query to the original data to be presented inside Widgets.

Data is fetched through the Alpana Connections, see Course Connecting to Data.

Each Widget displays data from a single Data Source (but a Data Source can be re-used in any number of Widgets).

Alpana Designer provides a graphical editor that allows to make this data preparation using simple mouse interaction.

*A Dashboard can contain up to 10 Data sources.
