Einstein Discovery Classic Retirement

Winter ‘19 introduced a new Einstein Discovery user experience embedded within Analytics Studio. However, although this new experience is GA in Winter ‘19, not all customers were able to see this experience immediately and will continue to see the Classic Einstein Discovery experience in AWS.

New Einstein Discovery Experience

Customers who purchased Einstein Analytics Plus after October 15th, 2018, received the new Einstein Discovery Experience within Analytics Studio.

Note: New Einstein Discovery Experience is not currently available for Gov Cloud customers.

Classic Einstein Discovery Experience

Customers who have purchased Einstein Analytics Plus or Einstein Discovery (standalone) before October 15th, 2018, defaulted to the Classic Einstein Discovery experience.

If you would like to switch to the new Einstein Discovery Experience within Analytics Studio, please log a case with Salesforce Support. Please review the considerations below before requesting this migration.

Impact of migrating from Classic to New Einstein Discovery

Things to consider before switching from the Classic Einstein Discovery experience on AWS to the new Einstein Discovery Experience in Analytics Studio:
 

• If you only have Einstein Discovery Analyst licenses and not Einstein Analytics Growth licenses, please contact your Account Executive to swap out Einstein Discovery Analyst licenses for Einstein Analytics Plus. 
• Datasets and Stories created in the Classic Version of Einstein Discovery will NOT automatically be migrated when switching to the new version. Any Einstein Discovery datasets you wish to keep in Analytics will need to be exported using the “Export to Einstein Analytics” feature before logging a case with Salesforce Support.
• Users must have the Use Analytics user permission and the Use Einstein Discovery user permission to access Einstein Discovery now that it’s part of Analytics Studio.
• Users will now create stories from Einstein Analytics datasets rather than create separate datasets for Einstein Discovery to analyze.
• The new Einstein Discovery Experience has the following limits that are different from the classic version:

Maximum size of a dataset to analyze: 40M rows
Einstein Discovery can process no more than 2 stories per org concurrently.
