AI Data Engine interfaces
AI Data Engine (AIDE) provides three primary interfaces for user interaction and automation. Each role, such as storage administrators, data engineers, and data scientists, utilizes these interfaces based on their specific tasks and responsibilities.
ONTAP System Manager
ONTAP System Manager is a web-based interface designed for storage administrators. It provides workflows for cluster setup, workspace management, DCN monitoring, and attaching guardrail policies.
AI Data Engine Console
The AI Data Engine Console is a dedicated interface for data engineers and data scientists. It enables users to explore data sources, create and manage data collections, configure data pipelines, apply classifiers, and interact with guardrails and vector search features. The console provides advanced tools for data discovery, curation, and integration with AI/ML workflows.
REST API
AIDE exposes the ONTAP REST API for automation, integration, and programmatic access. The API supports cluster setup, workspace and collection management, metadata queries, vector search, and retrieval endpoints.
