If there are two truths about people, it’s this:
1) We like options
2) We don’t like to wait.
Look at the success of Netflix with its countless movies and TV shows available with one click, or Amazon Prime with its two-day delivery model. If a product can be readily available with little to no hassle to use, then it’s a winner. DigitalOcean, with its marketplace of pre-configured applications and solutions, houses a whole bunch of winners. The most recent of which is Business Intelligence and self-service reporting solution – Izenda.
Digital Ocean: How it works
Application development is big business – with the global market set to reach $100B by 2022. And with that kind of growth comes a lot of competition. DigitalOcean seeks to level the playing field by offering a growing list of one-click applications and solutions to developers and businesses of all sizes.
With a goal to empower everyone with access to the best tools for modern app development, DigitalOcean provides solutions to businesses without the need for extensive research, expensive configuration, and manual set-up. Applications are spun up in seconds in pre-configured environments with all the prerequisites installed. That way, developers can focus on what matters most for their business – developing the application.
Izenda Agrees
And much like DigitalOcean’s mission, Izenda seeks to empower as many users as possible with access to cutting-edge data analytics and self-service reporting. Through the DigitalOcean Marketplace, developers can deploy a standalone instance of Izenda which includes a front-end UI site, a back-end REST API site, as well as a PostgreSQL configuration database. Users connect to their database through direct connection strings and can manage tenant, role, and user setups with ease.
Once configured, developers can utilize Izenda’s powerful analytics and reporting capabilities to speed time to market and boost ROI. And that’s just the beginning. Through Izenda’s platform, businesses can:
- Eliminate guesswork – Through real-time data and reporting, businesses can take the uncertainty out of decision-making and use accurate data to guide strategy.
- Streamline operations – Business intelligence can help reduce time-waste by automating operational and administrative tasks that hinder productivity.
- Establish benchmarking – Businesses can gauge productivity, revenue, and overall success relative to their competitors for insights into industry development and the current state of their organization.
- Data visualization – Rather than interpreting difficult reports, businesses can use Izenda’s rich visualization library to quickly communicate and act on key metrics.
Looking Ahead
DigitalOcean’s recent addition of Izenda to its marketplace of preconfigured applications and solutions will allow a wide range of app developers and SMBs access to leading data analytics and self-service reporting for their application. Similar to DigitalOcean’s mission to simplify application development, Izenda seeks to simplify data analysis and reporting so that developers and their teams can spend more time building software that can change the world.
