Alteryx, the Analytics Automation company, is launching Alteryx Analytics Cloud, its first unified end-to-end analytics automation platform.
The availability of new Alteryx solutions in the cloud means users only need a browser to gain access to insights, with a setup that can be done in minutes instead of days.
Alteryx’s low-code/no-code capabilities also make it easier for any user to extract insights that help them tackle their toughest business problems, according to the vendor.
Democratising data analytics and ensuring every employee has access to insights is key for enterprises to remain competitive. Alteryx is addressing this massive market need by delivering Alteryx Designer Cloud, Alteryx Machine Learning, Alteryx Auto Insights, and Trifacta Data Engineering Cloud in one unified solution suite, the Alteryx Analytics Cloud.
“Gone are the days when only select teams could have access to analytics,” said Suresh Vittal, chief product officer of Alteryx. “As we accelerate the next phase of our cloud growth, our new innovations will bring analytics to all so every business can empower every employee — from data engineers and IT to data analysts and scientists to line of business users — to make data-informed decisions using analytics automation.”
Designer Cloud helps customers extend the power of analytics beyond data scientists, IT, and data and analytics departments to lines of business groups. Any user who interacts with data can now use Designer Cloud to prepare, blend, and output data in a highly visual, code-free way through a browser, including on Macs. Designer Cloud is interoperable with Alteryx’s beloved Designer Desktop product and users can easily collaborate and share workflows between both applications.
Users can also quickly integrate with their most used cloud applications, databases, spreadsheets, and more with cloud storage connectors available for platforms like Amazon S3, Google Drive, Office 365, and Snowflake.
Alteryx Machine Learning is a cloud-native, automated modelling solution that helps business users make data-driven decisions. Instead of requiring data science experts to code machine learning models, business analysts can now quickly build, validate, iterate, and explore models with a visually guided user experience while learning about data science using Education Mode.
Alteryx Auto Insights, formerly Hyper Anna, is a cloud-native analytics solution that delivers AI-driven automated insights to business users. The solution works like a human analyst. It finds stories, anomalies, and insights hidden deep in data, and provides clear summaries and explanations focused on what matters across the organisation. This gives business users the confidence to make data-led decisions themselves, driving data literacy across the organisation.
Enterprise customers are deploying modern data architectures built upon cloud data warehouses and SaaS-based applications and analytics. With the addition of Trifacta to Alteryx Analytics Cloud, data engineers can now drive their analytics at scale, as well as satisfy their business users’ appetite for timely insights from these large cloud datasets to fuel digital transformation efforts.
