InetSoft Offers a BI Tool that Complements Data Warehouses
InetSoft makes BI software that can mash up data from data warehouses and almost any other operational data source and deliver dashboard reporting for a unified view of corporate performance.
InetSoft's unique data mashup capabilities also speed up data warehouse architecture update processes. It allows you to prototype data manipulations before committing to new, official ETL definitions and transformations.
On top of this data mashup platform reside front-end BI tools that deliver reporting, OLAP, scorecards, dashboards, visualization, and ad hoc analysis.
Key benefits of the InetSoft BI solution include:
Exploring data with self-service solutions:
- A visualization driven approach allows users to perform their own reporting and analysis with very little IT support. By using familiar graphical objects and an intuitive Web 2.0 interface end users are empowered to easily explore, manipulate, and display data to gain new insights.
Connecting easily to existing data sources :
- With its patent pending Data Block technology, InetSoft simplifies the process of accessing data. Users can retrieve information from data warehouses, transactional databases, or other sources regardless of whether they are stored as relational databases, XML, flat files, etc. This data can then be dynamically mashed-up, manipulated, and transformed as Lego like data assets.
Meeting your ROI goals :
- InetSoft has flexible pricing models that allow you to deploy a solution that accommodates your unique situation. InetSoft’s architecture provides a total BI solution within one unified application. However, if your needs dictate, deploy just the components that you need.
Scaling to meet the needs of the organization:
- Built upon open J2EE standards our application provides a solution that incorporates clustering, load balancing, and failover to provide high availability and quick response time. Additional features such as page streaming, data caching, and performance tuning ensure optimal operation as your needs increase.

How Can InetSoft's StyleBI Be a Better Alternative to a Data Warehouse?
While traditional data warehouses are powerful for centralized storage and historical analysis, InetSoft's StyleBI offers a more agile, cost-effective, and real-time alternative for many modern analytics needs.
1. Real-Time Data Mashups Without ETL Overhead
StyleBI enables live data mashups from diverse sources—SQL, NoSQL, cloud apps, REST APIs—without requiring complex ETL pipelines or data duplication. This reduces latency and accelerates insight delivery.
2. Lower Cost and Faster Deployment
Unlike data warehouses that require significant infrastructure and setup time, StyleBI can be deployed in hours and scaled elastically. It’s ideal for organizations seeking rapid ROI and minimal IT overhead.
3. Microservice Architecture for Embedded Analytics
StyleBI’s microservice-based design allows developers to embed visualizations and reports directly into applications or portals, making it a flexible choice for OEMs and SaaS providers.
4. Self-Service Dashboards and Visual Exploration
Business users can create and explore dashboards without relying on IT, thanks to StyleBI’s intuitive drag-and-drop interface and built-in interactivity. This democratizes data access across the organization.
5. Versatile Data Access Without Centralized Storage
Instead of consolidating all data into a warehouse, StyleBI connects to live sources and presents a unified view through its semantic layer. This avoids data silos while preserving source system integrity.
6. Built-In Security and Role-Based Access
StyleBI supports fine-grained access control, multi-tenant isolation, and integration with identity providers, ensuring secure data delivery across user roles and departments.
7. Ideal for Agile and Hybrid Environments
For organizations with hybrid cloud/on-prem architectures or rapidly changing data needs, StyleBI offers the flexibility to adapt without rearchitecting a centralized warehouse.
