Problem addressed

Observing figures through Big Data technologies may be a powerful lever for getting new business insights. That’s true when manipulated by technical experts & data scientists! But it actually doesn’t help companies to quickly turn all available data into innovative end users experiences & revenues. Business leaders are lacking turnkey & cost-effective solution which makes it simple to feed any apps with the right gathered data coming from business applications, Internet of things, Open Data, real-time data… Current solutions don’t address the needs, mostly focused on existing business processes (BI analytics) and mainly techno-centric (ETL & standalone Big Data modules). They slow down time-to-market and require too high initial purchase costs. Organizations need a new & profitable way to enable the real potential of data through rich API and viral visualizations.

Solution OpenDataSoft is a cloud-based turnkey solution designed for seamless & unlimited data re-using (Open Data platform, urban smart services, datajournalism…). It is a Data-Driven Software which empowers all business users for easily collecting & preparing all data, and quickly turning them into interactive shareable visualizations (maps, analytics, images viewer…) or rich secured API. Thanks to its high-end user-friendliness & pay-as-you-use pricing (yearly fees starting at 10 k$), OpenDataSoft makes its customers dramatically speed-up the time-to-market of their apps (mobile, Web…) and divide their costs by 4 with an average 6-month ROI.

Enable Data Re-use

Increasing sources, different formats, quality issues... Non-technical users can access and preview all available data for picking the ones to prepare

o Data Sources Connectors (business apps, files, API, crowdsourcing…)

o Data Extractors (shapes, XML…) o Data filtering & enriching features

(geocoding changes, Data linking…) o Automatic generation of secured Data

Access API

Re-use & Share

Exploring, mashuping, sharing… Based on the data types re-using possibilities OpenDataSoft automates visualizations & API generation

o Data exploration features through faceted search engine (incl. geo-clustering & search through maps)

o Automatic generation of interactive embeddable widgets (maps, analytics, multimedia viewers…)

o Data API management console for managing online services distribution through data-driven rules

Scale

Near-real Time, Web business model… OpenDataSoft brings its customers performance, robustness & agility to their data-driven business thanks to Big Data technologies & an elastic model

o No limit of volumes for collecting & storing data

o Pre-integrated Big Data Technologies & cloud elasticity (possible hybrid-cloud)

o Our customers success is our metrics: pay-as-you-use (based on data volumes & API access)

« Close Data » has become an exception so that OpenDataSoft was started to make it easy for all to re-use all data from any source, any format, any type & any scale. OpenDataSoft reinvents data management with its Data-Driven Software and wants its customer successes be its metrics: pay-as-you-use model based on Data volumes of storage & Data API access.
