3) Data store information

  • The data dictionary itself
    • Postgres database 'tobias' on millie; user 'tobias' password 'tobias' (will replace this with a bar database once that's setup)
  • Scripts/instructions for creating the schema in the database instance
    • There are none because this is done dynamically by our code. (Based on SourceDefinition, see above URL.)
