Visualizations for Real-Time Data
As Panopticon’s leading partner in the United States and MicroStrategy’s Premier Alliance Partner in the Midwest, ZY Vision provides a versatile platform that integrates Panopticon’s data visualization software with MicroStrategy’s reporting capabilities to deliver effective monitoring and fast analysis of data in real-time. With MicroStrategy providing the analytical back end and Panopticon supporting a highly interactive, lean-forward analytical experience for users, managers and analysts can compare historical data with other real-time operational inputs, isolate outliers and identify emerging patterns.
Merge Data from Historical Databases & Real-Time Streaming Sources
Panopticon’s unique StreamCube™ in-memory online analytical processing (OLAP) data model powers the system’s real-time capabilities. Exceptionally versatile, StreamCube can connect to virtually any data source, including real-time streaming feeds, message buses, Complex Event Processing engines (such as Sybase CEP), Excel files, column-oriented databases, and traditional row-oriented relational databases.
Why Makes Panopticon Different?
Unlike other systems that can’t handle streaming data or whose performance significantly degrades under the strain of large streaming feeds of real-time data, Panopticon’s StreamCube is a small-footprint representation of multidimensional data. It’s specifically designed to make extremely fast calculations using continuously updated data, offering a distinct advantage over traditional OLAP cubes that pre-calculate and aggregate data in batch processes. The combination of StreamCube and Panopticon interactive data visualizations provides the exploratory visual data analysis functions critical in operational decision-making environments.
Advanced Visualizations for Real-Time Data
Business users can easily design and modify their own real-time analytics dashboards through a simple dragand- drop process with Panopticon’s intuitive “what you see is what you get” user interface. Once complete, users can embed interactive dashboards into their MicroStrategy Web environment in just minutes, with no coding required and minimal development effort.
Optimized for Fast Visual Analysis
The business world is dynamic. Why should your data be static? Traditional static diagrams can’t show relationships or structures in understandable ways; nor are they effective when exploring large amounts of new and unknown data. Panopticon’s data analytics software system helps you see multi-leveled hierarchies, interconnections and details on individual objects in order to solve problems, understand complex relationships and identify areas of concern. Its platforms – designed according to the best practices promoted by visual analysis experts like Edward Tufte, Stephen Few and Jeffery Heer – offer a wide range of interactive data visualizations optimized for fast visual analysis.
