FAQs

  • Are there requirements to use GX Cloud?

    Do you have data quality issues? Requirements met! Click here to sign up for the GX Cloud Beta.

  • Can I use GX Cloud if I’m not already using GX?

    Yes! Come one, come all!

  • What if I already have an existing GX deployment?

    GX Cloud is designed to be a drop-in replacement for existing deployments of GX Open Source. Regardless of where your configs and stores are located, the DataContext is the starting point for access to all of GX’s resources.

    To use GX Cloud, simply upgrade to the latest version of GX, configure your GX Cloud credentials, and run the same notebooks or Python scripts you’ve been using locally. For teams using older versions of GX, we’ll be happy to help with your migration—please contact sales@greatexpectations.io.

  • When should I use GX Open Source vs GX Cloud?

    GX Open Source is the right choice if you want to BYOdB, have esoteric infrastructure requirements like air gap, or straight up can’t use cloud-hosted SaaS. It’s also the go-to option if your entire data quality team is highly technical and prefers programmatic tools, and/or if your collaboration and data access management needs are already fully being met.

    If none of the above apply to you, opt for GX Cloud!

  • Will you continue to support GX Open Source?

    Yes, of course. Our commitment to open source remains the same: everything that is part of GX Open Source will always remain open. We will continue to develop and support both the open source library and the vibrant community around it. We will continue to seek and integrate input from the data community as we develop the Great Expectations roadmap.

  • Is GX Cloud secure?

    Yes! We’ve designed the GX Cloud platform with security at the forefront. There’s user management and authentication every step of the way, with access controls for larger teams. GX Cloud doesn’t directly access your raw data and gives you complete control over its stored metadata.

    You can see our security and architecture FAQ for more details. For information about compliance with other standards such as HIPAA, please contact sales@greatexpectations.io.

  • Does GX Cloud store my data?

    No. GX Cloud’s data processing typically happens natively within your existing infrastructure, so Cloud only stores metadata about your data quality. Since the line between data and metadata can be blurry, and some metadata is sensitive in itself, GX Cloud additionally gives you full control over which metadata is sent and stored by the server.

  • How much does GX Cloud cost?

    The GX Cloud Beta is free! After the Cloud public release, all users will be able to choose between a free tier and a paid version. We’re still working through the details on pricing—stay tuned.
