WHY QUICKSIGHT?
Amazon QuickSight is an emerging Business Intelligence platform. AWS is investing not only in advanced AI capabilities (Amazon QuickSight Q) to rival its peers but also in the enterprise reporting use cases that are essential to all customers of the “legacy” vendors.
Built from the ground up for the cloud, Amazon QuickSight’s Super-fast, Parallel, In-memory, Calculation Engine (SPICE) uses a combination of columnar storage, in-memory technologies enabled through the latest hardware innovations, machine code generation, and data compression to allow users to run interactive queries on large datasets and get rapid responses. SPICE supports rich calculations that help customers derive valuable insights from their analysis without ever having to worry about provisioning or managing infrastructure. SPICE automatically replicates data for high availability and also enables Amazon QuickSight to scale to thousands of users who can all simultaneously perform fast interactive analysis across a wide variety of AWS data sources.
Ironside believes that Amazon QuickSight’s broadness of vision and investment in analytic capabilities provided with a per-session pricing model make it a game changer for customers. For AWS Analytics Strategy, Amazon QuickSight’s emerging capabilities need to be understood and Ironside has assets to help you accelerate your legacy implementations to the platform.
