How to Run a Playground Evaluation
Use the Statsig Warehouse Native playground to evaluate metric and experiment configurations with sample data before committing to production pipelines.
Statsig recommends playground evaluations only for Enterprise-tier customers.
A Playground Evaluation is a Statsig-hosted project with sample, near-real-time data sources that you use to set up experiments, analyze metrics, and explore Statsig Warehouse Native. Use it to evaluate the product when privacy or data-security requirements make testing on your own production data slow.
The read-only Demo Project doesn't cover the full warehouse native experience, so contact support to request a Playground Evaluation project. You're an admin on the project and can add teammates to explore it together.Playground projects
Playground projects come with some boilerplate connections hooked up:
- A real-time event streaming metric source
- A daily user-level metric source
- An assignment source with a handful of experiments
- A handful of pre-loaded metrics and experiments
Playground projects don't come with any assign-and-analyze experiments, so you can't use some features that require SDK usage (e.g. Stratified Sampling). You can use a normal demo project with an SDK on a local script to generate data for those use cases.
Evaluation
Follow steps 2 and later from the quick start guide, starting with the tables available to the playground project. These steps give you a sense of what running experiments and managing metrics in Statsig involves.After completing those steps, refer to the POC guide and simulate the steps relevant to your evaluation. Exploring the Pulse UI together has been useful for teams. The Statsig team welcomes any questions or feedback.Was this helpful?
