Which solution presented in the previous section is the best? Surprisingly I will not answer this question directly, each solution has its own unique benefits and challenges that will fit different users and scenarios.
I will instead discuss the approach that my company selected based on many months of pros and cons analyses. Based on our research it is the direction the market is moving toward.
Additionally, we already had all of the tools required for this approach available to us without purchasing additional software. At the same time, we reached the conclusion that the framework to be used for production was not the main driver, instead it is really the contents and input data which matter the most. Those tools would support analyzing everything but it is not what you usually need.
In this specific scenario we deployed our statistical consultancy team which helped in defining methods and models needed to compare sites. The results of the statistical analyses are then put into JSON format and displayed using chart. The other aspect is data we would use for building the dashboards. All described methods support JSON formats as input. Again the questions we faced are:. When contents and data sources are clarified it should be easier to select the proper technology to visualize for your specific needs.

A comparison will then be made with solutions designed using Microsoft Power BI. A more custom example of a JSON structure will be presented in a later section. Advantages: Very good for interactive visualizations Vibrant Open source community Offers incredible levels of interactivity! Disadvantages: It can have a steep learning curve particularly for those with little previous javascript experience. What does Power BI offer?
Dashboards can even be opened on mobile devices, making them very convenient. Figure 2. Figure 3. Interactive Pie Chart Produced by Chart. Figure 4. Next we need to fix the default settings of both objects so that they make more sense!

Conclusion Which solution presented in the previous section is the best? Again the questions we faced are: Can we always say that we are collecting data in consistent way? Are we refreshing them automatically? Is access to data secured? References Hinson, Joseph.
