Hi Dinesh,

1. Only Meta data is stored and not the data. Data will be fetched in real time from external data source.
2. Activities are not available.
3. Currently reporting is not available and data is  Read-only, read/write capability is not available in this release.
4. please contact your Account executive (AE) for licensing.

Thanks,
