QUESTION

I noticed some queries being ran by ‘Deleted User’ in the Panther Search history and wasn’t sure what is running them:

1

SELECT count(*) FROM panther_logs.information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = 'PUBLIC' AND table_type = 'BASE TABLE';

ANSWER

These are normal, internal queries that Panther runs as a part of its monitoring test suite.
