CARTO

How does the free trial work?

Our free 14-day trial gives you access to all CARTO components, including demo datasets and maps, and a CARTO Data Warehouse instance so you can fully evaluate the powerful features of our platform. If you are working on the cloud with large and complex datasets and using geospatial analysis for several use cases, we recommend you request a demo so you can start an assisted trial to make the most of our platform.

How does CARTO ensure the security of data and user access?

Our enterprise-grade security, authentication, and data access controls let you distribute your analysis securely to stakeholders. Create secure connections to your data warehouse, give access to your users with SSO, and share your analysis safely.

What is the difference between cloud and self-hosted deployment options?

Cloud deployment is our fully-managed Platform-as-a-Service offering. Self-hosted lets you connect to your cloud data warehouse within a secured network environment with all APIs and web applications hosted in your own cloud infrastructure, without compromising security or your data governance standards.

How is consumption of the Usage Quota measured?

Usage Quota consumption is calculated based on the tracked usage of our APIs. Creating workflows, running analysis or building map visualizations all consume weighted usage quota units, which we track across the platform.
