Repository

The Process Intelligence repository is a tool for processing, transforming, and uploading data to your project. The Repository can store both compressed data and large data files, including archives. Once uploaded, data that has not been transformed yet will be presented in the form of database tables. Once transformed, these tables can be uploaded to one or more projects for further analysis.
