@SudheerS4590 does this answer your question?
Pega Cloud supports Business Intelligence Exchange (BIX) which provides extract and transform functions for Pega Cloud clients. You can use BIX to extract application data from your Pega Cloud environments into industry-standard formats that you can import to other popular business intelligence applications. These high-performance, multi-threaded extraction operations can function independently of Pega Platform and give you the option to schedule extracts automatically, which saves you time. However, please note that there are some differences when running BIX on Pega Cloud compared to on-premise deployments, such as output format options being limited to XML or CSV files, and direct access to the Pega Cloud server file system not being allowed.

@MarijeSchillern Thanks for the detailed info on BIX.
another question pertaining to the same topic is ...
while we were review the demo of the PCS2.0 on PEGA Cloud .... observed that the new feature called 'Data Explore' next to 'Data Extract' is generating similar data out of all work objects .... so can we use this feature in the place of BIX data .... Could you please let me know what will be the difference between this new feature EXPLORE vs BIX data perspective ... thanks

@SudheerS4590 please can you do a documentation search (Data Explorer) and a PSC search to read up on BIX and Explorer questions.
The 'Data Explore' feature in Pega is a tool for analyzing and managing data in your application. It provides a convenient way to access and analyze data from business processes. It is more of a reporting and data analysis tool, allowing you to filter, sort, and visualize data in various ways. On the other hand, Business Intelligence Exchange (BIX) is a tool for extracting transactional data from the Pega database into formats suitable for exporting to a reporting data warehouse, operational data store (ODS), or other downstream process. BIX is more of a data extraction and integration tool, allowing you to create a broad view of your business by integrating Pega Platform data with data from other systems of record. In summary, while both tools deal with data, they serve different purposes. 'Data Explore' is more for data analysis within the Pega Platform, while BIX is for extracting data from Pega for use in other systems or processes.
