Business Intelligence Capability – Data Exploration

Overview of Data Exploration Solutions

Data Exploration Solutions enable robust visual searches of vast amounts of data and are commonly used by data analysts.

Data Exploration Solutions include sophisticated data discovery capabilities that enable users to rapidly and intuitively search through large amounts of data in order to gain insights.  Subsequently data exploration solutions enable users to quickly retrieve answers about organizational data and enable users to quickly generate information about the data.  In addition data exploration solutions provide informative search capabilities in order to enable analysis of the available data and enable conversion of the data into information.  While data exploration solutions do enable queries of data, the data is exposed to users using business terminology and underlying database structures and data models are hidden to the user.
