Can I pick a different DLT Product Edition for each pipeline in my workspace?

Yes. You can specify a different edition for each DLT pipeline in the pipeline settings.

How do I select a DLT Product Edition for my pipeline?

Am I able to change the DLT Product Edition after I’ve created the pipeline?

What happens if I attempt to set DLT quality expectations and my pipeline is not using the Advanced Edition?

Are there any other charges associated with DLT?
