Data sharing tool for facilitating real-time access to current or updated datasets

Abstract:

In some embodiments, a data server generates an open data reference specifying a location for storing report data associated with a report. To generate the report data, the data server generates a data query based on a report definition that describes how the report data associated with the report is generated. The data server executes the data query on source data to obtain the report data and causes the report data to be stored on a storage device at the location specified by the open data reference. The report data can be retrieved via a network using the open data reference for integration within a third-party application. The data server further generates updated report data by executing, on the source data, an updated data query generated based on the report definition and has the report data stored on the storage device to be replaced with updated report data.
