Advantage	What it means	Practical impact
Data mashup engine	Real-time virtual data modeling and the ability to combine disparate sources on the fly without building heavy ETL pipelines.	Faster prototyping and fewer upstream data engineering bottlenecks: dashboards and reports can join live data from databases, web services, spreadsheets and OLAP sources without waiting for centralized warehouse changes.
100% web-based designer and strong self-service	A single web application for designers, power users, and casual business users that supports ad-hoc exploration, calculated fields and column filtering in the UI.	Reduces reliance on IT for routine dashboard changes; business teams iterate and tailor visualizations directly, improving decision cadence and reducing ticket backlog.
