Axiom introduces views, a powerful new feature that lets you filter and reshape your data for downstream usage.
Views allow you to use APL (Axiom Processing Language) to create virtual datasets from data you‘ve already ingested. You can create views that:
- Filter events from source datasets based on specific conditions
- Remove or redact sensitive columns to manage access to PII
- Enrich data with additional computed columns
- Combine multiple datasets through unions or joins
Views are perfect if your organization needs to provide different teams access to specific subsets of data without duplicating ingest or creating complex instrumentation. For example, you can create a view that filters out sensitive customer information for your support team while maintaining the complete dataset for your security team.
You can query views, use them in dashboards and monitors, and share them externally just like standard datasets. You can also manage views using Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to maintain fine-grained control over who has access.
To get started with views, see our documentation.
