Summary

We live and breathe data with every action in our life, and organizations that have the ability to analyze relevant data in a timely manner will save an additional $430 billion by 2020 over their peers. While there is a need, the traditional BI platforms are slow, expensive, and are not designed to handle the volume, variety, and velocity needs that organizations face today.

Amazon QuickSight is the innovative and next-generation, cloud-hosted BI platform that addresses short falls of traditional BI systems and is at an extremely competitive price from $9 per user per month. QuickSight can source data from various sources including relational databases, files, streaming, and NoSQL databases. QuickSight also comes with an in-memory caching layer that can cache and calculate aggregates on the fly. With QuickSight, data analysts are truly empowered and can build intuitive reports in 60 seconds without any significant setup by IT. In the next chapter, we will look into the details of onboarding various data sources that are supported by QuickSight.
