What is cloud data visualization?

Cloud Data Visualization

Cloud data visualization involves presenting data in a visual format using cloud-based tools, allowing for the exploration, analysis, and interpretation of data from various sources. By leveraging cloud infrastructure, these platforms can handle large volumes of data and perform complex computations, providing real-time insights and enabling data-driven decision-making. Additionally, cloud data visualization promotes accessibility and collaboration, allowing users to interact with and share visualized data across different departments and teams within an organization, ultimately empowering informed decision-making and strategic actions.

Astrato is a game changer. It integrated directly into our Data Cloud. Security and data privacy are critical for our work with behavioral health, addiction, and recovery support providers. Astrato allows us to maintain our high security in the Snowflake Data Cloud while opening more insights to more levels of care. Astrato is significantly faster with dashboards loading almost instantly.

Before, we had a separate analytics page, and nobody used it. Now, every customer at least checks the analytics, and for some, it’s the main thing they care about

Astrato acts as the shop window for everything happening in Snowflake, while all computation and governance remain in code within our data warehouse. That means anyone can access insights without relying on complex BI tools.
