Plotly Chart Studio is great at creating interactive charts and also maintain a repository of every chart ever created in the organization. Moreover these charts can be searched by other users and used for different purposes. It is also very useful for data science companies as it has APIs for Python, Julia and other languages to create charts within the development environment and then publish to Chart Studio.

Return on Investment
  • It has saved us quite a bit of time managing our catalog of clusters and keeping things organized.
  • Since we had a division we acquired running IBM Cloud, it was easy to get it running and try it out, but we found we prefer our Azure configuration better simply to keep our technology in alignment across corporate functions.
  • I definitely see some cost savings by separating out the storage and compute. It helps you start to put an appropriate price tag on certain instances of big data.
