 ## Understand the schema
 A *schema* is a collection of tables grouped under logical categories. The Demo schema has several categories from monitoring solutions. For example, the **LogManagement** category contains Windows and Syslog events, performance data, and agent heartbeats.
 
-The schema tables appear on the **Tables** tab of the Log Analytics workspace. Each table contains columns, each with its own data type, shown by the icon next to the column name. For example, the **Event** table contains columns such as **Computer**, which is text, and **EventCategory**, a number.

Filtering through the table elements returns a new result set, while an explicit filter applies to the existing result set.
