The Kinetica Workbench is the primary interface for interacting with the Kinetica database. Here, you will find:
- The Data Object Explorer, which shows you all of the database objects in your database
- SQL Workbooks, which organize and store your SQL code and visualizations
- An Import/Export Wizard, which helps you import data into the system in a guided workflow
- Management screens that assist you with starting/stopping the database and other administrative tasks.
