We build your dashboard from any application
Grafana Data Dashboards for All Your Information
Grafana is an open source solution for creating dashboards. EasyData uses Grafana to visually represent various Data Science projects. This dashboard software doesn’t just display data attractively – it lets you work interactively with your data!
With Grafana Dashboards, we visualize our Data Science projects. The advantage is we can quickly display the information exactly how you want it. Our custom Data Dashboards can show graphs, charts and other data models.
The first version of Grafana launched in 2014 and has grown significantly since. In 2021, they raised $220 million in funding – not bad for an online dashboard platform with open source roots. Like many successful open source solutions, there’s both a free Open version and paid Enterprise Edition.
Your Personal Information Monitor
Data visualization goes beyond just making your data visible. A well-designed Grafana visualization provides understandable overviews that tell a story – whether about your organization, current project, or process information like Machine Learning results. Our custom visualization approach makes information accessible that would otherwise remain hidden.
We Compare Data Visualization to a Good Book
Let’s extend the storytelling metaphor to books. Books typically begin with an introduction and table of contents showing different chapters. A good book gives you an immediate sense of each chapter’s topic from its title.
We follow the same structure with data visualization – especially helpful for complex Data Science projects with multiple components. All these separate data elements must eventually come together into a coherent visualization, while keeping the “story” engaging enough to maintain the client’s interest. We welcome this challenge and invite you to experience our visualization approach firsthand.
Information Security with Grafana
While online data dashboards are incredibly useful for gaining insights, security matters. You don’t want competitors peeking at your data! We set up Grafana dashboards securely and reliably. The dashboard platform itself offers thoughtful security features, and its open source nature means potential vulnerabilities get spotted and fixed quickly.
As a Grafana hosting provider, EasyData ensures timely implementation of security patches on our CIS-benchmarked infrastructure.
Dashboard software with data encryption
At its core, the dashboard platform works with databases that must be secured against unauthorized queries. Grafana encrypts all data (including searches) before writing to the database using AES encryption. Essentially, all users create a secret key created during initial setup.
Grafana works with Data Encryption
Your searches are naturally protected from unauthorized viewing. However, unwanted access doesn’t only come from external hackers. Our Dashboard lets you restrict department-specific access to certain visualizations. Financial data shouldn’t mix with HR data, for example. We often address GDPR considerations by limiting access and search capabilities per user or department, with logging for transparency.
Does this sound complicated? It doesn’t have to be! Data visualization should make information naturally understandable. That’s our focus when building your custom dashboard.
Real-Time Data Control with Grafana
We can do more than just visualization, we let you effectively control data. Take our OCR Cloud service as an example: EasyData offers XML ALTO conversions, particularly useful for archives and libraries handling massive volumes (100,000 newspaper pages daily isn’t unusual). For such cases, we provide interactive dashboards allowing direct quality control, article classification insights, and reprocessing through different Machine Learning networks.
Integrating Grafana with Your Applications
We seamlessly connect the dashboard to your existing CRM, ERP or BI tools. Our Data Science specialists deliver visualizations within secure, complete dashboard platforms. We can essentially make data visualizations accessible within any platform. Even embedded in your website!
Creative Dashboard Solutions
This open source dashboard platform offers developers and users numerous plugins – over 150 available through their dedicated download site, similar to an app store. Our internal library contains plenty of examples to guide your specific data flows. There’s even a WordPress plugin – see a practical example here.
Your Data Doesn’t Exist in Isolation
We design visualization architecture to match your organization’s needs – the gateway to data integration. After receiving a base dashboard, clients often find they can easily design or modify dashboards themselves. Key considerations always include organizational goals and user preferences that emerge during new projects.
Integration naturally means connecting dashboards to existing data sources like databases or spreadsheets, using APIs, web services or Rabbit MQ when technically appropriate.
EasyData’s Added Value
You might wonder: The online dashboard solution we use is open source with a robust “app store” – what more could you need? A secure dashboard platform requires proper setup and support tailored to your visualization project. We provide project-based expertise for your organization, including Grafana training customized to your situation (not generic approaches).
We also help solve challenges in creating or using dashboards, with support options including SLAs that deliver technical expertise access, reliable SAAS environments and other benefits matching your needs. Interested? Let’s talk!
