About Cognite Data Fusion (CDF)
Cognite is a SaaS provider, and Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) is our industrial DataOps platform product. We also offer subscription-based access to configurable business applications.
Cognite Data Fusion streams your data into the CDF data model where the data is normalized and enriched by adding connections between data resources of different types and then stored in an industrial knowledge graph in the cloud. With your data in the cloud, you can use the CDF services and tools to build solutions and applications to meet your business needs.
With Cognite, you are the owner of your data. We use your data only to provide agreed-upon services. We handle your data securely, and we comply with privacy and legal regulations. If you leave our services, we make sure that you continue to have ownership of your data.
You can interact with your data in CDF or work with the data with our API and SDKs.

As a Cognite tenant, you'll manage one or more CDF projects. The data in one CDF project is completely isolated from data in other CDF projects. Depending on your existing infrastructure and needs, you can choose to run your CDF projects in a multi-tenant or a dedicated cluster:
-
In a multi-tenant cluster, you share cloud storage and computing resources with other Cognite tenants.
-
In a dedicated cluster, the cloud storage and computing resources are used exclusively by your organization.
We currently support Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) as our cloud providers.
For identity and access management, you can use identity providers (IdPs) that support OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect, for example, Microsoft Entra ID and Amazon Cognito. If you want to use a different IdP, review the minimum IdP requirements and reach out to us with your preferences.
To set up a secure CDF subscription, we'll link the subscription to your identity provider so that you're always in control of who gets access to your data in CDF.
