Create business intelligence dashboards with Amazon QuickSight

[34/100] #100DaysOfCloud Today, I created data analyses, visualized the data, and shared the analyses through data dashboards using Amazon QuickSight.

  • Amazon QuickSight is a cloud-scale business intelligence (BI) service that you can use to deliver easy-to-understand insights to the people who you work with, wherever they are.

  • Amazon QuickSight connects to your data in the cloud and combines data from many different sources. In a single data dashboard, QuickSight can include AWS data, third-party data, big data, spreadsheet data, SaaS data, B2B data, and more.

  • As a fully managed cloud-based service, Amazon QuickSight provides enterprise-grade security, global availability, and built-in redundancy.

  • It also provides the user-management tools that you need to scale from 10 users to 10,000, all with no infrastructure to deploy or manage.

Benefits :

  • BI for everyone
    • Deliver insights to all your users when, where, and how they need them. BI users can explore modern, interactive dashboards; get insights within their applications; obtain scheduled, formatted reports with Paginated Reports; and make forward-looking decisions with machine learning (ML) insights. To further simplify data exploration, QuickSight allows users to ask questions about the data in natural language.
  • Build faster
    • Speed up development by using one authoring experience to build modern dashboards and paginated reports. Application developers can rapidly integrate rich analytics and ML-powered natural language query capabilities into applications with one-step embedding, public embedding, and rich APIs.
  • Scale efficiently
    • Since QuickSight is serverless, automatically scale to tens of thousands of users without the need to set up, configure, or manage your own servers. The QuickSight in-memory calculation engine, SPICE, provides consistently fast response times for end users and analysts, removing the need to scale databases for high workloads.
  • Lower costs
    • Pay only for what you use with the QuickSight usage-based pricing. No need to buy thousands of end-user licenses for large-scale BI or embedded analytics deployments. With no software or servers to install or manage, you can lower costs by removing upfront costs and complex capacity planning.
