Building analyses from datasets
An analysis is the foundation for visualizing your datasets. It is a container for a set of related visuals. Each analysis also contains a default story, which can be used to step through different iterations of an analysis over time; for example, you may want to share the same visual but with different filters like year/region and see them in a sequence as scenes.
An analysis is generally based on one dataset but QuickSight allows you to join datasets under one analysis, although a given visual can only have data from one dataset. You can have a maximum of 20 visuals in an analysis.
Let's look into the detailed steps for creating a new dataset and then an analysis on top of that dataset.

For this example, we will create a new dataset based on a USA census data file that we have in S3 storage called
USACensusSalarybyZip.csv. Click first on...
