About

This private guide is a place to store links to vendor tutorials, "alt" text for database descriptions, links to "sub" databases, and more.

"Alt" database descriptions

As with any assets that are mapped, the description field is customizable.

Below are "alternative database descriptions" that can be copy/pasted or adapted when mapping database assets. They focus on "how to get started" using a particular database.

These "alt-database descriptions" can provide a replacement, if desired, for the vendor marketing verbiage in the default description fields.
