Data Visualization

Data visualization is a powerful way to simplify complexity. But before you can optimize your applications or individual processes, you need to be able to visualize the patterns and connections they have within your entire enterprise infrastructure. With real time analytics and data visualization, you can move your processes out of the shadows and into the light of clear articulation and graphical representation. Improved visualization will foster a better understanding of existing processes and facilitate communication among process stakeholders. Data visualization will also support the tracking of application performance across time, as well as the design of new and improved ones.

Progress Software Provides Real Time Data Visualization

Progress® Apama® is a next-generation complex event processing platform that helps deliver comprehensive data visualization capabilities as well as support for all aspects of application development and deployment. 

While Apama powers the ability to perform real time analytics on complex data, the Progress® Control Tower delivers a data visualization business control panel that supports the development, testing, deployment, and ongoing optimization of enterprise-class applications - whether they are on-premise, or in the cloud. It provides a real-time view of what’s happening across your business, and the control to improve it. Its customizable portal serves drill-down and cross analytics on data from events, transactions and processes, with the power to respond in an instant. Without assistance from IT staff, you can create graphical or tabular representation of current or "to be" processes, and then run simulated tests on those processes and applications to see how they perform under varying conditions or loads. The Progress Control Tower makes it easy to generate comparative reports to accompany your data visualizations to support you in making choices among alternative processes.

Data Visualization in Real-Time Execution

Leveraging a high-performance, complex event processing (CEP) engine, Progress Control Tower can continuously analyze designated live data streams originating within or outside your enterprise. When business-relevant events or event patterns are detected, the system can trigger automated optimizations to process executions, or alert appropriate personnel. When conditions call for manual intervention in a process execution, it helps users to visualize the process impacts associated with alternative courses of action. With this type of intelligent business process support, business optimization can be built into daily process implementation.

With its business rules management and event processing technologies, Progress Control Tower delivers real-time visibility into all dimensions of your business operations. Customizable charts, graphs, and dashboards provide big-picture data visualization that makes it readily clear how your processes are performing across the enterprise. Powerful drill-down functionality lets you take an up-close look at individual process executions, transactions, or business events in real time.
