Kyvos

Kyvos is a big data business intelligence software developed by an American privately held company named Kyvos Insights. The company, headquartered in Los Gatos, California, was founded in 2012. The software provides OLAP-based multidimensional analysis on big data and cloud platforms and was launched officially in June 2015.[1][2] In December the same year, the company was listed among the 10 Coolest Big Data Startups of 2015 by CRN Magazine.[3]

Technology

The software uses OLAP technology to enable business intelligence on big data platforms.[4] In a report published by Forrester Research in 2016,[5] where they evaluated several native Hadoop business intelligence (BI) platforms on 22 parameters, Kyvos was referred to as a platform that gave new life to OLAP by porting it to Hadoop. As per the report, Kyvos enables analysis on Hadoop based on OLAP schemas, aggregations, and predefined drill-down paths. It pre-calculates aggregates at multiple levels of dimensional hierarchies to improve query response times as compared to SQL-on-Hadoop platforms. Users can analyze data through the Kyvos visualization tool or by using other BI platforms.[5]

Kyvos was originally built for Hadoop and later on added support for Cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud [6] and Microsoft Azure.[7] Initially, it supported only MDX queries and integrated with data visualization tools such as Excel and Tableau.[8]  In 2017, Kyvos 4.0 added support for SQL connectivity extending integration to other BI tools such as Business Objects, Cognos, MicroStrategy, Power BI and Qlik.[9]

Major releases

  • First release in June 2015.[1]
  • Kyvos 2.0 released in June 2016 with support for Amazon Web Services and additional BI tools.[10]
  • Kyvos 4.0 released in August 2017 with support for SQL queries,[9] enhanced performance, and support for concurrent users.[11][12]

Awards

  • In June 2018, Kyvos technology won the TDWI's Best Practices Award in the Emerging Technologies and Methods category for a customer implementation.[13]
