AtScale 5.0
AtScale's software provides a way for users of mainstream business analytics and visualization software, such as Tableau and QlikView, to tap into the huge volumes of data stored in big data systems like Hadoop.
AtScale 5.0 provides a new multidimensional calculation engine that supports the MDX query language for modeling complex business processes, a performance optimization engine that uses machine learning to optimize query performance, and a data abstraction layer that provides access to relational and other on-premise and cloud data sources. The 5.0 release also offers enterprise-grade security, data governance and metadata management capabilities.
AtScale was recently granted a patent on its platform's calculation engine that provides the links between data sources and data visualization tools.
