Profile Limit: You can create up to 3 profiles per organization.
Profile Sizes
Profile size determines the amount of compute resources used to run your queries, affecting speed and cost. In general, query performance scales with size, so a larger profile can run more complex queries faster.The speed multipliers are approximate, not guarantees. Query time does not scale linearly with profile size, e.g. moving from 1x to 2x won’t reliably turn a 30s query into a 15s one. Actual speedup depends on your query pattern, so the best way to find the right size is to experiment with a few on your own workload.
Manage Your Compute Profiles
1
Navigate to Compute Settings
Go to Settings → Compute.
2
Add, Resize, or Delete Profiles
In the Compute Profiles section, you can manage your compute profiles:
- Add Profile - Create a new compute profile with your desired size
- Resize Profile - Change the size of an existing profile
- Delete Profile - Remove a profile you no longer need
Run Query with Profile (Allium App)
1
Select Your Query
Go to Explorer Queries and select your query.
2
Choose Compute Profile
Click the Compute Profile dropdown on the top right of the query editor and select the profile you want to use.
3
Run Query
Click Run to execute your query. The selected Compute Profile will be used for this run and saved as the default profile for this query.
Run Query with Profile (API)
You can specify the Compute Profile when running queries via the Explorer API. See the Execute Query documentation for details. For this step, be sure to use the identifier of the profile, not the name. You can also manage compute profiles programmatically, without going through the Allium App. Use the Explorer API to list, create, resize, and delete profiles. Creating, resizing, and deleting a profile requires an organization admin’s API key.Queue Isolation
Each Compute Profile has its own isolated query queue. Monitor the number of queued and running queries for each profile at Settings → Compute.
