Very interesting, thank you. There is a big opportunity for someone to re-imagine the power of Lotus Improv with a more intuitive touch interface for tablets. Perhaps it will be me, but I'd rather it be you than that it not happen.
Data analysis as a service could be a big market. Why do Google Analytics, Mint, my time-tracking service, my to-do list and every other online app I use implement their own, custom, proprietary versions of the table/sort/pivot UI for advanced use-cases? I'd rather they provided clean interfaces for easy things and allowed me to join all their data together into one data cube for serious reporting.
- stefanu 15y agoThank you. There are couple of analytical services out there, as SaaS, that can connect to various third-party sites, databases or other data sources. However, what is missing is some nice, reusable, simple UI set of elements for pivoting and drilling down. The idea is that apps can use Cubes as module for providing aggregation and drill-down capability. Then you have a front-end module, either within the app or any external, that can connect to the Cubes OLAP API and you can do reporting as you like. I'm not too much front-end guy, so any help would be appreciated. As mentioned in one of my other comments here, I've started https://github.com/Stiivi/cubes.js https://github.com/Stiivi/cubes.js . Just proof-of-concept.
