DashboardPlattform

DashboardPlattform is a software framework designed to create, deploy, and manage dashboards that visualize data from diverse sources. It supports business intelligence, monitoring, and analytics use cases by providing a visual designer, data connections, and sharing capabilities. The term often refers to generic platforms rather than a single product.

Core components typically include a dashboard designer, a library of visualization widgets, data connectors, and an API layer. These platforms aggregate data from databases, data warehouses, cloud services, and APIs, and may include built-in data modeling, calculations, and transformation capabilities. Caching and performance optimizations are common to support responsive dashboards.

Architecture and deployment models vary. DashboardPlattform solutions can be delivered as software as a service (SaaS) or installed on premises. They usually comprise client applications for browsers, server-side data processing, and a set of connectors and security controls. Role-based access control, auditing, and data governance features are frequently emphasized to manage who can view or modify dashboards.

Key features often include drag-and-drop dashboard design, interactive charts and maps, real-time data streaming, alerting and scheduling of reports, exporting to formats such as PDF or CSV, and the ability to embed dashboards in other applications. Collaboration features, such as commenting and version history, support team workflows.

Typical users are data analysts, product managers, operations teams, and executives who need to monitor key performance indicators and perform ad-hoc analyses. DashboardPlattform sits within the broader landscape of business intelligence and data visualization, distinct from code-based visualization libraries.
