SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DATA VISUALIZATION, DASHBOARD CREATION AND MANAGEMENT

Abstract:

Provide is a visualization system that enables generation of a "dashboard" of individual visualizations. In further embodiments, the system enables users to quickly and easily generate these visualizations and integrate complex filters, queries, aggregations, etc., with simple UI input. The visualizations can be provided as a service that requests information from an underlying database. The database itself may also be hosted as a service, permitting granular and native database functions layered with the visualization architecture. The system can support additional functionality and access management to generate visualizations that can be shared with other users and/or integrated into websites, blogs, etc. The system can handle the complex logic, data interactions, dynamic data transformation, dynamic authorization, etc., needed to manage data rules (e.g., access rules layered over database permission based control, summarization/aggregation requirements, etc.) for any data being rendered in individual visualization and/or the dashboard of multiple visualizations.
