Create Processing Job - Web

Prev Next

Reveal’s Processing function is ideal for larger data sets. Creating a processing job works in three steps, beginning with creating and populating an S3 staging folder outside the Reveal environment.

  1. Create S3 Data Staging Folder.

  2. Upload Data to S3 Data Staging Folder.

  3. Process Data from S3 Data Staging Folder.

Follow the instructions below to process large data sets within the web interface.

Important

Using the Processing function in Reveal’s web interface requires the purchase of S3 Browser Pro. For detailed instructions on how to set up and configure S3 Browser Pro, please see the Administer and Use S3 Browser Pro - Processing article.

I. Create S3 Data Staging Folder

  1. In the S3 staging bucket, navigate to the Temporary folder.

  2. Create a new folder with the exact same name as your project (e.g. Zinc).

  3. Inside the above project folder, create a new subfolder for your upload (e.g. Enron-PSTs).

  4. For each new upload, use an incrementing number (e.g. 1-Upload, 2-Upload, 3-Upload...).

You will reference this folder structure when following the Rapidly Uploading Unstructured Data instructions.
