Troubleshoot Data Warehouse request delivery times
A given Data Warehouse request can take anywhere from less than an hour to several days or more. It is difficult to estimate the exact amount of time it takes for a request to process, due to the following factors:
- The date range of the request
- The amount of traffic your report suite received during the requested time period
- The number of rules within a segment, and which variables within a segment used
- How much data is included within the segment
- The number of breakdowns used, and the number of unique values within each breakdown
- The number of metrics used
- The number of concurrent requests being processed
- VISTA rules, if configured to apply to DataWarehouse requests
Alter requests to speed up delivery
If Data Warehouse requests consistently take a long time, consider altering your requests. Altering a request is the only way to speed up the delivery of a Data Warehouse request.
To speed up the delivery of a Data Warehouse request, you can alter it in any of the following ways:
- Use a segment containing a smaller sample of data: The less data a request works with, the faster it returns a report.
- Run requests in 14-day increments or less: Smaller requests are processed faster than large requests.
- Use fewer breakdowns: Many breakdowns in a request exponentially increase the time it takes to process it.
Use an alternate method
If you require these types of reports in a more timely fashion, consider the following alternatives:
- Analysis Workspace: Though unlimited dimension items are not available, it includes almost all other use cases that Data Warehouse provides.
- Data feed: Takes all raw data in a report suite daily and sends it to a cloud destination. You can then import the data into your own database and run queries in order to get the data you need.
- Custom Engineering Services solution: Adobe Engineering Services can provide a custom solution for your organization at an additional cost. Contact your Adobe Account Team for additional details.
