"With this release, Yellowfin has delivered another first for the BI and analytics software industry," said Yellowfin Co-founder and CEO, Glen Rabie. "Yellowfin's virtualized Data Preparation Module uniquely addresses the cost, complexity, security and inefficiency issues encountered by typical approaches to data preparation . No other vendor in the market is solving data preparation challenges in the same way as Yellowfin.
"Yellowfin's Data Preparation Module truly supports the needs of data analysts, enterprise IT and business users. Data analysts can independently prepare data for analysis in less time, IT can easily govern that data, and business users have fast access to data they can trust in order to make critical business decisions."
Yellowfin's Data Preparation Module has been designed to overcome common challenges encountered when preparing data for analytics in three ways, by:
- Integrating data preparation processes directly into a single analytics environment
- Offering comprehensive data profiling capabilities
- Providing automated best practice metadata modeling functionality
According to independent industry analyst Dr Kevin McIsaac , CEO and Founder of the Data Science Institute, the Yellowfin Data Preparation Module is a significant progression for any company's approach to advanced analytics.
"With 80 percent of data scientists' time spent on data preparation, Yellowfin's new module is a valuable addition that data professionals should investigate," said McIsaac. "The benefit is your data scientist spends less time on data preparation, or can delegate this task to a lesser specialized data analyst or business user. Either way this is a big step forward in advanced analytics methodology."
A virtualized approach: Govern all data and analytical content in a single environment
Rabie said the problem with traditional data preparation was that it forced organizations to undertake data migration processes, which put data governance and security at risk.
"Moving data from one environment to another increases the risk of unauthorized data access," said Rabie. "A virtualized approach means data analysts can directly connect to, prepare and analyze data sources in one place.
"Delivering virtualized data preparation will empower Yellowfin's clients to maintain unparalleled governance, consistency and security across of all data and analytics content. Any data preparation actions performed will be uniformly reflected across all content -- from reports and charts, to dashboards and Storyboards."
Yellowfin Product Marketing Manager, Ivan Seow, said that by conducting data preparation and analytics in a single application, Yellowfin was also enabling organizations to avoid the cost and complexity of a multi-tool approach.
"Typical data preparation and analytics practices, conducted in separate software applications, introduce unnecessary data provisioning bottlenecks," said Seow. "Then, there's the expense of learning and maintaining two products -- not to mention the propensity for standalone 'self-service' data preparation tools to create untrustworthy and unsecure islands of disparate data.
"Yellowfin avoids the chaos of traditional data preparation by delivering a single source of truth for all enterprise data. Go from data source to dashboard in one analytics platform and environment."
