Amazon QuickSight is a fast, cloud-powered business intelligence (BI) service that makes it easy to build visualizations, perform ad-hoc analysis, and quickly get business insights from your data. In this session, we demonstrate how you can point Amazon QuickSight to AWS data stores, flat files, or other third-party data sources and begin visualizing your data in minutes. We also introduce SPICE - a new Super-fast, Parallel, In-memory, Calculation Engine in Amazon QuickSight, which performs advanced calculations and render visualizations rapidly without requiring any additional infrastructure, SQL programming, or dimensional modeling, so you can seamlessly scale to hundreds of thousands of users and petabytes of data. Lastly, you will see how Amazon QuickSight provides you with smart visualizations and graphs that are optimized for your different data types, to ensure the most suitable and appropriate visualization to conduct your analysis, and how to share these visualization stories using the built-in collaboration tools.

3. Many thousands of companies use AWS for Big Data

4. We start with the customer
We take on the big challenges they have
We innovate

5. We start with the customer… and innovate
Customers told us… We created…
Managing databases is painful & difficult
SQL DBs do not perform well at scale
Hadoop is difficult to deploy and manage
DWs are complex, costly, and slow
Commercial DBs are punitive & expensive
Streaming data is difficult to capture & analyze

8. What are the Big Data challenges
our customers face?

9. Lots of data
Who are my top customers and what are they buying?
Which devices are showing time for maintenance?
What is my product profitability by region?
Why is my most profitable region not growing?
How much inventory do I have?
Has my fraud account expense increased?
How is my marketing campaign performing?
How is my employee satisfaction trending?
Lots and lots of questions
Few insights

10. Old-guard BI
Costs Too Much
Pay $ million before seeing first analysis
3 year TCO $150 to $250 per user per month
Takes Too Long
Spend 6 to 12 months of consulting
and SW implementation time

11. Can’t handle NoSQL, Streaming Data
Time
Cost
Pay $ millions for license and hardware
Requires 6 to 12 months of consulting
Slower performance at scale
Doesn’t deliver fast query performance
Extra $$ For Mobile and Sharing
Extra $$ For IoT Dashboards
Old-guard BI

12. Freedom to get the real value
out of the data you have

18. I have multiple data sets both on-premise and on
AWS from different sources, and I need to make
data available and enable access via Amazon
QuickSight.
How do I do this?

19. 1. Data made available in “Data Lakes” using Amazon S3 or
Amazon Redshift
2. Data access managed with bucket or schema level policies
3. Data enabled via Amazon QuickSight
