Yellowfin Signals and Yellowfin Stories
Yellowfin, a Melbourne, Australia-based business intelligence software developer, debuted Signals and Stories in October, two analytical applications that help business users more quickly discover, understand and act on business opportunities.
The Yellowfin Signals analytical engine provides automated data analysis, analyzing time slices of live and continuous business data to identify critical changes in information, such as sudden spikes or changes in trends. Continuous time-series detection of trends and anomalies helps users recognize critical issues in real-time and understand what's driving the changes.
Yellowfin Stories is designed to help business users better understand analytical results, creating "data stories" that put information in context for faster, better-informed decision making. By embedding live reports from multiple BI dashboards, according to the company, Stories creates "narratives" with consistent, common understanding within an organization, improving knowledge sharing and collaboration.
