Creating a Datasource in DKubeX

This tutorial guides you through the process of creating (or adding, to be more clear) a datasource in DKubeX. A datasource is essential for storing and managing datasets that will be used for training and evaluating machine learning models.

  • On the DKubeX UI, navigate to the Datasources tab from the left sidebar. The datasources page will open, displaying a list of existing connected datasources (if any).
