Extract Data Source
Extract Data Source is a compressed snapshot of data from a regular data source. This data is saved to a local file and can be updated from the original data source at any time.

The extract data file is optimized for data grouping. It reduces the initial dashboard load time. A special in-memory cache allows you to improve performance when accessing extract data.
To create an Extract data source and specify connection parameters, see Binding to Extract Data Sources.
