Control data access

Define and enforce access rules effortlessly. Epsilon uses archetypes to set data access permissions and simplify data sharing.

What is an archetype?

Archetypes are virtual data objects that allow you to define your data and set access permissions accordingly.

Take this example for instance:

Object

It is the central point of your data, representing a virtual entity that groups all the relevant information into meaningful categories. In this case, a ‘Person’ is the main object in this dataset and includes categories and sub-categories.

Categories

Contains attributes like demographics, literacy and occupation that describe the person.

Sub-categories

Further breaks down the data in the categories, (e.g. cultural background under demographics)
