Selecting a Data Modeling Strategy

The following DataModel configurations are available.

• Document

  Returns a single table representing a row for each top-level object. In this data model, any nested object arrays will not be flattened and will be returned as aggregates.

• FlattenedDocuments

  Returns a single table representing a SQL CROSS JOIN of the available documents in the file.

• Relational

  Returns multiple tables, one for each nested object array. In this data model, any nested documents (object arrays) will be returned as relational tables that contain a primary key and a foreign key that links to the parent table.
