Bay Dynamics’ IT Analytics™ Server 2.1 includes a browser and device independent HTML Cube Browser that significantly enhances the ability to visualize and interact with data indexed via OLAP cubes. The biggest problem when working with big data is rapidly processing massive amounts of data, and then finding a compelling way to communicate relevant analytics to different roles throughout your organization.   This new and powerful visualization technique is now embedded in Bay Dynamics’ longstanding and highly acclaimed IT Analytics software.

 

Check out our introductory video to IT Analytics Cube Browser:

 

 

 

With the inclusion of the new Cube Browser, IT Analytics enhances your ability to conduct powerful analysis of your data, including pattern detection, trends, and KPI creation and performance, using dynamic chart and graph views that you can easily share with users. You can create a virtual work space for any role or department within your organization. Your work spaces can be composed of pivot tables, tabular grids, and charts – helping your viewers visualize the most relevant data and see clear action items. You can then share the work space with one person, or a group of people, so that everyone gets the view you want them to see. Users can view their particular work space anytime from any device.

 

For existing SQL Server Analysis Server OLAP Cube users, IT Analytics Server 2.1 provides you with a system for managing your cubes and is flexible enough to point at any existing  cubes to discover, analyze, and visualize your data.  IT Analytics Server 2.1 provides a data provisioning system with role-based security, and a platform to create, customize, and visualize Reporting Services reports in a consistent and convenient end user environment.

 

Bay Dynamics’ IT Analytics Server 2.1 allows you to scale beyond traditional limits with OLAP cubes, helping you visualize  very large data sets that have exceeded the limits of other cube browsing software.  Install IT Analytics Server 2.1, point towards your existing cubes, and go.  IT Analytics Server 2.1 is an extendable commercial product that adapts as your data structures evolve, giving you consistent access to flexible data visualization, and giving you intelligence you can act on.

Despite the uproar over DDOS attacks and cyber security attacks, companies are beginning to realize that some of the biggest security threats come from information moving around within their company, or worst, walking out their doors with their own people. CFO magazine just made the case for tight CFO oversight of cloud platform integrations in part because of the risk involved in the use of off radar or unsecured cloud services. Likewise, Gartner points out that the BYOD movement means that devices come on to your network, having been specifically designed to easily share data in the cloud with little or no security measures installed on the given device. What does this mean? In order to secure data, we need a clear, comprehensive picture of how data moves in your system and deviations from new devices to irregular upload patterns.
