At this point, we are not looking to have our own database and looking to see if ETL can be connected to existing Appian cloud DB. Thank you for your suggestion.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.appian.com/thread/82910?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 23 Jun 2021 20:47:49 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:b6fab7a6-2381-4abe-a9da-3c7d88a1dddbDanny Verb<p>I recommend opening a support case to see what options Appian Cloud allows. You can also hook up your own database which would make it easier to connect to an ETL tool.&nbsp;<a href="https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/Configuring_Relational_Databases.html">docs.appian.com/.../Configuring_Relational_Databases.html</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
