Amazon QuickSight is a fast BI service that makes it easy for you to build visualizations, perform ad-hoc analysis, and quickly get business insights from your data. QuickSight is built to harness the power and scalability of the cloud, so you can easily run analysis on large datasets, and support hundreds of thousands of users. In this session, we’ll demonstrate how you can easily get started with Amazon QuickSight, uploading files, connecting to S3 and Redshift and creating analyses from visualizations that are optimized based on the underlying data. Once we’ve built our analysis and dashboard, we’ll show you easy it is to share it with colleagues and stakeholders in just a few seconds. And with SPICE – QuickSight’s in-memory calculation engine – you can go from data to insights, faster than ever.
