AWS Services Used by Qrvey
Qrvey is built with multiple AWS services. Here is a list of the main components to give you an idea of what you can expect in your AWS bill. Many have a free tier or upfront pricing depending on your account.
Configuring AWS and Qrvey for Postgres Connections Utilizing the Export to S3 Method
Very large or long-running queries to Postgres may take several minutes to start. You can speed up this process by selecting the option, “Export Data to S3 to Support Larger Data Loads”. When employed, the query output is sent to S3 and then Qrvey pulls the data from there. The option is available when the Host URL points to an AWS RDS Postgres instance that is in the same AWS region as Qrvey.
Configuring AWS and Qrvey for Redshift Connections
The steps below detail how to configure Qrvey to access Redshift clusters for the purpose of loading data into Qrvey for data analysis.
Configuring AWS and Qrvey for Snowflake Connections
The steps below detail the required configuration to access Snowflake clusters for loading data into Qrvey for data analysis.
Configuring Dynamic Labels For Datasets
Introduction
Configuring Time Zone Settings
The Qrvey platform enables end users to display dates and times in their local time zone. The Qrvey platform stores data in UTC/GMT+0 and adjusts the time displayed to the end user based on their preferred settings. The default time zone setting is specified in Qrvey Admin Center, but it can be overridden programmatically. The possible settings are:
Connecting Qrvey Platform to Your Secure Database Instance
This document explains the steps you need to take if you want to securely access your AWS RDS instance to load data into the Qrvey Business Analytics platform.
Create a Qrvey Administrator Account in AWS IAM
The initial Qrvey Administrator account was created when your instance of Qrvey platform was created. You may create additional Administrator accounts using the User Management feature in Qrvey Admin Center. You also have the option to create a Qrvey Administrator account in the AWS IAM service.
Customizing Qrvey Deployment
This document will help you customize a Qrvey Instance for different configurations like Composer URL, “From” email address, etc.
Database Connections
You can create connections to various RDBMS by using the Database Connection feature under the Connections tab. Database connections can be created by entering the common connection attributes in the provided fields in the connection dialog, or by using the more advanced connection attributes using a JSON structure. While the former method is the default, the latter can be used to configure properties that are typically not included, such as timeout and encryption preferences.
Deleting an Installation
Deleting a deployment will remove all the metadata and data stored in Qrvey Platform. And the only way to recover the data would be from a backup but the application URLs and API keys will change as you would be restoring the backup in a new instance.
Disabling Lambda Recursive Loop Detection
In July of 2023, AWS enabled Lambda recursive loop detection to identify and prevent excessive recursive loops in any Lambda functions. The Qrvey platform uses recursive loops for some long-running tasks with appropriate safeguards to prevent excessive invocations. You must disable Lambda recursive loop detection to avoid an interruption of service.
Elasticsearch Management
The Infrastructure page of the Qrvey Admin Center enables you to view, monitor, and manage the configuration of your Elasticsearch cluster.
File Upload Connection
This article describes the steps to create connections to the supported file types, which includes comma-delimited CSV, JSON, and ndJSON. You can also connect to an Amazon S3 bucket with multiple files in these formats.

Introduction to the Qrvey Platform
The Qrvey platform is an all-in-one analytics solution that enables SaaS providers to put cutting-edge analytics into the hands of their users. This article contains essential information required to understand how to work with the Qrvey platform.
Join Lake Optimization
Datasets with joins have their data copied in S3 so that it may be joined using Athena. When there are frequent data syncs, the S3 folder accumulates an excess number of small files. In addition, when data syncs update existing records with matching IDs, the old records remain in S3. Both of these situations degrade join performance and, in extreme cases, may even lead to errors.

Managing AWS Elasticsearch Cluster
The Qrvey platform uses AWS Elasticsearch service to store all Analytics data and runs queries on this cluster to show Charts and Metrics in UI. This document explains how to monitor and Resize an AWS Elasticsearch cluster based on your needs and requirements.
