SRC, LLC, a leading software developer and provider of geographic business intelligence technology, today announced Alteryx v4.0, an advanced software solution that delivers key business intelligence and transforms complex business data into actionable information.

Alteryx v4.0 includes several innovations that speed the processing of user-selected content, including spatial and non-spatial data, from corporate data transaction and warehouse systems. Alteryx v4.0 also introduces a road-tested, global street map option as well as advanced automated report writing tools to enable a single business user to produce or schedule the batch production of detailed maps and advanced spatial visualizations within robust reports.

“Business isn’t about point solutions for point problems; it’s about workflow and bringing best-of-breed solutions together in a seamless environment,” said Dean Stoecker, president and CEO of SRC. “Alteryx v4.0 has achieved this goal of delivering personalized and pervasive solutions that span the enterprise by allowing best practices to be easily tailored for and deployed to every user community, regardless of their business intelligence requirements.”

Alteryx v4.0 continues to provide the ability to integrate files, handle multiple data formats and query transactions to support all leading enterprise databases and to produce solutions that are data- and country-independent. The speed, flexibility and scalability with which geographic and data quality analytics can be deployed using Alteryx also enable the quick and easy sharing of more enterprise data within a single, consistent, business process-analysis environment.

Alteryx v4.0 further enhances the rapid application of geospatial functions and analysis on nonspatial enterprise data using techniques that support seamless and rapid integration with multiple sources of spatial data, including customer drivetimes and distances, demographics, consumer profiles, end-user business transaction statistics and physical geographies. These new performance and processing upgrades highlight the unique strengths of Alteryx v4.0 for serving as both a customer data integration, data quality and an extract, transform, and load solution to address business process problem-solving across vertical industries. Alteryx v4.0 has demonstrated unmatched speed and processing power thanks to innovations in its software architecture. Its data access, processing and reporting performance is limited only by the processor speeds and data throughput capabilities of its underlying computing hardware.

Experian’s James McGarva, international product consultant of Experian Business Strategies, understands and implements solutions with Alteryx across the enterprise with Experian Business Strategies. “Alteryx v4.0 has enabled my organization to build and deploy our data solutions to internal and external clients in a fraction of the time to drive and impact positive results,” McGarva said. “With Alteryx, we have automated processes that ran across multiple databases in multiple countries over a period of days and have streamlined these processes into a matter of minutes and hours to delivery.”

Additional enhancements available through Alteryx v4.0 include:

--

Dynamic Input Tool - allows users to read from relational databases

scattered across the enterprise and to dynamically extract and

analyze against spatial or other data attributes. Users may perform

any number of custom spatial queries, joins, compares, combines,

filters, visualizations, mappings or report writing activities in a

fraction of the time necessary to conventionally access and poll

remote data sources.

--

Reporting Tools Suite - is data-driven, simplifying the creation of

narrative text, tables, charts, maps or graphics. Users can create

and run report modules, just as they do application modules,

employing batch scheduling, desktop macros and custom Web

interfaces to automate the formatting and combining of data-driven

report elements within any number of newly generated reports.

--

Spatial Processing Tools - three new spatial processing tools make

Alteryx 4.0 a complete spatial analytics offering.

--

Generalize tool - brings precision node reduction into the

automated simplification of complex polygons, significantly

reducing processing times while maintaining precision and

allowing for the easy incorporation of hundreds of complex

spatial calculations.

--

Smooth tool - takes a polygon or polyline object and adds nodes

to smooth sharp angles into curves, allowing users to quickly

produce more aesthetically pleasing maps and reports.

--

Buffer tool -quickly defines, by a user-specified value and for

any polygon or polyline spatial object, a larger, expanded or a

smaller, contracted buffer boundary to accommodate critical

location selections, when great value or risk are at stake.

--

Visual Query Builder - provides database administrators and

non-technical users with an easy means of constructing and

executing data transactions with relational databases located

throughout an enterprise network. The Alteryx visual query builder

produces verified SQL syntax, tested to access and interoperate

with multiple table relational databases, such as the popular

systems Access , DB2 , MySQL , Netezza , Oracle ,

SQL Server , Sybase and Teradata .

--

Enhanced Map Graphics and Browsing - include significantly enhanced

visual details and layers that bring a new level of professional

design to Alteryx mapping and report writing capabilities. The

Alteryx v4.0 full pan-and-zoom browser functionality increases the

ease and speed at which users can manipulate and navigate across

various mapping features in Web-based applications or enterprise

desktop solutions.
