Analysis Source
Data pulled from a computing source is imported into the analysis source. Subsequent insight analysis reads data directly from the analysis source.
Quick Audience supports Hologres and AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 as analysis sources.
Hologres is recommended because it offers lower costs.
Add ADB 3.0
-
Quick Audience only supports access to ADB 3.0 versions 3.1.4.12 and above. You can refer to How do I query the minor version of an AnalyticDB for MySQL cluster to check the version of your ADB 3.0 instance. If the version is earlier than 3.1.4.12, submit a ticket to request an upgrade.

ADB3.0 in the China (Qingdao) region is not supported. We recommend that you deploy ADB3.0 and MaxCompute in the same region. If you use OSS when calling the API operation to create a crowd, OSS and ADB 3.0 must also be in the same region.
