AQS

What is AQS?

CausewayOne Asset Management is built upon a non-relational database. This provides great performance and flexibility but isn't compatible with standard query languages like SQL. No problem, we made our own to use instead!

AQS stands for Asset Query Syntax. It lets you query your asset management data. It makes it possible to fetch items that meet specific conditions, view their attribute data and calculate numerical statistics.

Use our AQS Builder to construct your queries visually, one stage at a time. No coding required! For those who do like to code, you can write AQS queries in JSON format (see the Developer Docs).

CausewayOne Asset Management itself uses AQS to fetch data behind the scenes.
