Information Builders Announces General Availability of WebFOCUS InfoDiscovery

September 2014 by Marc Jacob

Information Builders announced the general availability of its WebFOCUS InfoDiscovery offering. The web-based data discovery solution empowers analysts and business users to gain deeper insight from all kinds of data and easily communicate the impact of their findings to help guide actions and decisions. InfoDiscovery debuted at Information Builders’ 2014 Summit User Conference in June and has enjoyed a successful beta program with customers across industries in recent months.

A component of Information Builders’ powerful WebFOCUS BI platform, InfoDiscovery enables users to benefit from all of WebFOCUS’ key features – including visualisations, metadata, security, and more – without purchasing additional user seats, making it an economical addition to users’ BI portfolios. Throughout the beta period, Information Builders’ customers have benefited from InfoDiscovery’s flexibility and self-service visual analysis capabilities. The solution aggregates diverse data sets, from personal spreadsheets to big data sources, and visually depicts the information for exploration across different dimensions. This enables organisations to spot hidden patterns and relationships in the raw data that might go undetected in traditional BI reports or dashboards. In addition, InfoDiscovery is customisable by role and skillset, ensuring that business analysts, power users, and mainstream business users have the right tool or app for more insights and informed decision-making across the organisation.

Another InfoDiscovery key feature is the solution’s advanced geographical analysis, made possible by intuitive, compelling maps that blend spatially-related data with external demographic or market information to improve trend detection, locate inventory, and identify fraud, for example. InfoDiscovery includes access to cloud-based Esri Maps, the world’s most advanced mapping service.

InfoDiscovery comes bundled with a high-speed analytics Sandbox, a columnar data store that stores large amounts of data for fast retrieval, aggregation, and calculation – without the need for complex indexing or pre-aggregation of data. Its columnar technology uses memory efficiently, but is not limited to traditional in-memory limitations. As such, InfoDiscovery can deliver near-instant response times for very large data sets.

Numerous organisations that have gleaned value from InfoDiscovery during the early adopter program include American Express, Plex Systems, Food for the Poor, and RainTree Oncology Services.
