TIBCO Spotfire is a smart, secure, governed, enterprise-class analytics platform with built-in data wrangling that delivers AI-driven, visual, geo, and streaming analytics. It was a business intelligence company based in Somerville, Massachusetts that was bought by TIBCO in 2007.

History

Spotfire's origins trace back to the University of Maryland Human-Computer Interaction Lab at the University of Maryland, College Park where, a visiting student from Sweden in the early 1990s, Christopher Ahlberg, worked with Ben Shneiderman to develop applications of dynamic queries. Ahlberg returned to Sweden and developed an enhanced UNIX implementation of his visual data analysis tool, the Information Visualization and Exploration Environment (IVEE). Spotfire was launched in mid-1996 by IVEE Development, which was renamed Spotfire Inc.[1]

On May 2, 2007 it was announced that TIBCO would buy the company.[2][3] In November 2011, Tibco launched latest version of its business intelligence (BI) and analytics software Spotfire 4.0 with Microsoft SharePoint integration.[4]
