In a Document Understanding Process, particularly when it is in production, it is crucial to manage output data securely and efficiently. Utilizing Network Attached Storage (NAS) and Orchestrator Buckets are recommended practices for exporting result files for several reasons:
Network Attached Storage (NAS): NAS is a dedicated file storage that allows multiple users and client devices to retrieve data from centralized disk capacity. Using NAS in a production environment for storing result files is beneficial due to its accessibility, capacity, and security features. It facilitates easy access and sharing of files within a network while maintaining data security.
Orchestrator Bucket: Orchestrator Buckets in UiPath are used for storing files that can be easily accessed by the robots. This is particularly useful in a production environment because it provides a centralized, cloud-based storage solution that is scalable, secure, and accessible from anywhere. This aligns with the best practices of maintaining high availability and security for business-critical data.
The other options (B, C, and D) include locations that might not be as secure or efficient for a production environment. For example, storing files locally or in a temp folder can pose security risks and is not scalable for large or distributed systems. Similarly, storing directly on a VM might not be the most efficient or secure method, especially when dealing with sensitive data.
