Embedded Analytics & BI Platform
Integrate analytics into any application or workflow
Embedding analytics into your software application, website, or business process reduces friction and makes people more efficient and effective at their jobs. Embedded analytics can even make people happier! With embedded analytics, you don’t have to context-switch between applications or worry about mapping data in their application with data in other systems. It's all right at their finger tips.

The nature of analytics is changing because the data is changing.
Data is growing bigger, streaming faster, and it's more diverse than ever. For software application teams accustomed to standard reports and graphs populated by SQL queries, it can be very difficult to estimate development and maintenance effort in this changing data landscape.
Lack of expertise puts every release at risk.
The truth is, it is really difficult to embed visual data exploration of any kind in software applications. It's much harder when working with modern data platforms.
If you want to enhance the value of your product, the smartest thing to do is work with the experts.

Building data-driven applications using Zoomdata
With the Zoomdata analytics platform, application developers can fully customize the retrieval, presentation, and exploration of data for their customers.
Zoomdata presents several options for embedding analytics into applications and workflows:
- White-labeling to rebrand Zoomdata with an organization’s logo, fonts, colors, etc.
- White labeling plus lightweight integration using an iFrame within applications to customize the Zoomdata data exploration experience
- Programmatic integrations using JavaScript libraries
- Programmatic integrations using REST APIs
Take A Test Drive: Quick and Easy iFrame Embedded Analytics
Programmatic Management
The Zoomdata platform provides a RESTful API that software teams can use to manage its metadata. With the Zoomdata RESTful API you can dynamically create and manage accounts, users, groups, connections, data sources, and all other metadata. The RESTful API can be used in workflows and to create what one Fortune-100 customer refers to as "Visualizations as a Service."
Zoomdata REST APIs utilize common design practices to be easily navigable by any user. The APIs are documented with Swagger, allowing for interactive experiences when conducting experimentation and testing.
Open Security Framework
Security intelligence is built into the Zoomdata platform, allowing application developers to assert application security -- what people can do -- and data security -- what people can see. [OAuth, etc.]
Web APIs for Web Developers
The Zoomdata JavaScript client library plugs seamlessly into a developer's standard library of tools. With it, you can:
- Populate charts without having to worry about how to query back-end data platforms. You don't write SQL. You don't write to a custom API, like you might have to do with Elasticsearch. In fact, it doesn't matter where the data comes from -- Zoomdata handles connectivity and abstracts, optimizes, and optionally caches queries for you.
- Put the chart into "live streaming" mode with simple API calls. Developers can set the incremental update rate (e.g., every minute or every few seconds) and can incorporate controls to let users turn live mode on or off.
- Easily embed data, charts, and graphs into applications. Developers don't need to manage chart packages or dependencies. Just reference a chart by its Zoomdata descriptor.
Data APIs for Application Developers
Some organizations may not want to use Zoomdata to visualize data, but instead use it as a high-performance data engine. That's ok with us! The Zoomdata Query Engine is high performing and highly scalable, capable of handling big data, fast data, complex data, and lots and lots of concurrent users.
Zoomdata abstracts query requests
Application developers use the same simple query API for Elasticsearch, Impala, MongoDB, Snowflake, SQL Server, and almost anything else you use. No SQL jockeying or XML coding necessary. Zoomdata takes care of the connectivity, query optimization, and optional caching so you can focus on your beautiful application.
Zoomdata can stream data updates
Queries can be updated in real-time with Zoomdata. Our streaming data analytics platform manages windowing, so application developers don't have to worry about expensive query refreshes or stale data. And best of all -- it's data platform agnostic!
Application developers can stream data to embedded charts
With the Zoomdata SDK, application developers can use simple JavaScript commands to embed charts and populate them with fresh streaming data -- direct from almost any source. The charts can even use "playable" mode to stream data updates from the source in near-real time.
The Future is Here: Embedded Analytics
Developing good embedded analytics, especially in the modern data world, can be a sophisticated undertaking for which many businesses lack the skills or the time. But the rewards can be big. That’s why leading-edge companies like Deloitte, PwC, ClickFox, Markerstudy, and Clearsense chose Zoomdata as their embedded analytics platform.
