Concept: Coordinating Publish Schedules with Dataset Integration
The last base dataset integration that completes before publishing begins determines the freshness of data in a Prism data source. To ensure that data is as fresh as possible in a Prism data source created from a published dataset, schedule enough time for an integration to complete before a dataset publishing job begins.
As you create publish schedules for datasets that have scheduled integrations, consider how these scenarios affect the freshness of data in the Prism data source:
Scenario | Impact |
|---|---|
Base dataset integration completes before a scheduled publish begins. | The published dataset will use the latest available data from the dataset source file. |
Base dataset integration completes after a scheduled publish begins. | The published dataset will use the data from the dataset source file that existed before integration began. |
To help ensure that an integration completes before publishing begins, you can create a publish schedule that depends on the successful integration of the data.
