Analytics powers data-driven organizations with unified business intelligence (BI) at hyperscale. With analytics, all users can meet varying analytic needs from the same source of truth through modern interactive dashboards, paginated reports, and natural language queries.

Neuron Analytics uses Amazon Quicksight engine with a serverless architecture that automatically scales to hundreds of thousands of users without the need to set up, configure, or manage any servers. It also ensures that Neuron users don’t have to deal with slow dashboards during peak hours, when multiple business intelligence (BI) users are accessing the same dashboards or datasets. And you pay only when your users access the dashboards or reports, which makes it cost effective for deployments with many users. Analytics is also built with robust security, governance, and global collaboration features for your enterprise workloads.

QuickSight is serverless and can automatically scale to tens of thousands of users, without any infrastructure to manage or capacity to plan for. QuickSight gives users and analysts self-service business intelligence (BI), so they can answer their own questions, collaborate, and share insights. With QuickSight, your users can connect to data sources, create/edit datasets, create visual analyses, invite coworkers to collaborate on analyses, and publish dashboards and reports.

QuickSight allows you to directly connect to and import data from a wide variety of cloud and on-premises data sources. These include software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications such as Salesforce, Square, ServiceNow, Twitter, GitHub, and JIRA; third-party databases such as Teradata, MySQL, Postgres, and SQL Server; native AWS services such as Amazon Redshift, Amazon Athena, Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS), and Amazon Aurora; and virtual private cloud (VPC) subnets. You can also upload a variety of file types including Excel, CSV, and JSON.

QuickSight provides built-in security features so you can distribute dashboards and insights more securely to tens of thousands of users. In addition to the multi-region availability and built-in redundancy, QuickSight allows you to manage your users and content through a comprehensive set of security features including role-based access controls (RBACs), Active Directory integration, AWS CloudTrail auditing, single sign-on (such as AWS IAM and third parties), VPC subnets, and data backup. QuickSight is also FedRAMP-, HIPAA-, PCI DSS–, ISO-, and SOC-eligible to help you meet any industry-specific or regulatory requirements.

QuickSight Mobile for iOS and Android helps you securely get insights from your data from anywhere. Favorite, browse, and interact with all of your dashboards in a straightforward mobile-optimized experience. You can explore your data by drilling down and filtering, stay ahead of the curve through forecasting, get email alerts when unexpected changes happen in your data, and share those insights with colleagues. QuickSight Mobile is available as a free download for all QuickSight users from the App Store and Google Play Store.

QuickSight now offers expanded API capabilities that make it easier to create and manage users, datasets, and assets. QuickSight APIs provide programmatic access to BI assets such as dashboards, analysis, and reports. This API access to the underlying data models allows these BI assets to be treated as software source code and managed in your DevOps pipelines. You can use these APIs to programmatically migrate from legacy BI solutions to QuickSight, thereby accelerating the BI transition to the cloud.
