Business analytics and dashboard support is offered as part of a technical preview. Support will be provided on a best effort basis.

Before you begin

Note: Using HCL Compass on Docker and Docker Compose is not supported when deployed in a production environment. To use HCL Compass in a container in a production environment, deploy HCL Compass to a Kubernetes environment.
