To optimize compute time, several validations are proactively done to ensure a valid configuration before any training takes place. If any violations are found, descriptive exceptions are returned to the user.</p>https://docs.protegrity.com/synthetic-data/1.0.1/docs/building_req/hide_build_rest_wrap/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://docs.protegrity.com/synthetic-data/1.0.1/docs/building_req/hide_build_rest_wrap/<h2 id="identifying-the-source-and-target">Identifying the Source and Target</h2> <p>In this step, you specify the source real dataset from which you wish to produce Protegrity Synthetic Data and a target, where corresponding Synthetic Data will be saved.</p> <p>The following file formats are supported:</p> <ul> <li>Comma separated values (CSV)</li> </ul> <p>The following data storages have been tested for Protegrity Synthetic Data:</p> <ul> <li>Local File System</li> <li>Amazon S3</li> </ul> <p>The following data storage types can also be used for the Protegrity Synthetic Data:</p>
