• Few clicks to set up and use
• Vast number of sources supported
• Will expand coverage to enable access to
every industry-specific source via native
connectors or developer community
In-line and “extract and analyze”

Power of SQL via intuitive interfaces
• Group values, join data sets, sub-select rows/columns,
aggregate, calculated fields etc.
Applicable to all types and volumes of data
• BI Server SQL processing - function shipping via smart
code generation, compensate with in-memory execution
Function extensibility via R and source execution
• Full R grammar for statistical, Machine Learning,
textual models
• Reach-in to data sources’ specific routines
(eg. Machine Learning in Spark, custom functions)
while operating on a single data abstraction
12
Find Hidden Patterns with Smart Data Discovery
Automatic detection of data patterns
• Guide users towards strongest correlated factors and
variances from norm
Auto-blending, intelligent visualizations
• Easy blending of data sets with the most appropriate
handling to avoid double counting (fan-trap, chasm-trap)
• Auto-default to the appropriate visualization for a given data
set
Search enablement everywhere
• Powers the BI ASK experience (covered later)
• Type ahead in expression editor, data set browser
etc.
