Let's first introduce you to this excellent visualization service platform-Davinci.

Davinci is a DVAAS (Data Visualization as a Service) platform solution for business people/data engineers/data analysts/data scientists dedicated to providing one-stop data visualization solutions.

It can be deployed independently as a public/private cloud or integrated into a three-party system as a visual plug-in. Users only need to simply configure on the visualization UI to serve a variety of data visualization applications, and support advanced interaction/industry analysis/pattern exploration/social intelligence and other visualization functions.

So maybe a lot of friends don't understand, let's give you a concrete example to show what this software can do. (Click for full details)

For example, year-on-year and month-on-month are important indicators to measure the cyclical growth rate of a certain data of an enterprise, but it is difficult for us to compare the growth rate blindly by looking at the data. At this time, we need the help of visualization tools.

The chart below is a table called ABD Virtual Theater Related Data. These are simply fabricated data. The header includes year, month, number of shows, audience, box office and advertising revenue.

Here we omit the process of entering and editing this data into Davinci's ten thousand words. Next, we show you Davinci's diagram of the year-on-year comparison:

The cold data in Excel suddenly became alive, there is no! As shown in the above figure, in Davinci's selectable display final settings presentation, users can change the background color or upload background images themselves, upload charts they want to display, arrange them into their favorite shapes, and choose the style. Is it convenient and intuitive?

It is better to have fun together than alone. Davinci decided to open source to Gitthub in September 2017, with the first release 0.1.0 in April 2018 and the latest release 0.3.0-beta.8.

Xu Xiang, head of Davinci R & D at the Data Center of the Science and Technology Center, said that Davinci began research and development in April 2017."At that time, we hoped to have a BI tool with the following characteristics to improve the construction of the data platform to achieve four requirements: SQL as the center; Self-service, easy to operate and easy to use; Meet basic reporting and visual display requirements, expandable; Can manage data permissions and functional permissions. "

However, at the time, there were not enough tools for all kinds of commercial software and open source software, so the colleagues in the data center department decided to build one themselves. In August 2017, Davinci was first used internally at CreditEase. After a trial run, they decided to open source the software.

Xu Xiang said,"The original decision to open Davinci was mainly because Davinci was originally designed from the perspective of general tools, it was not born to solve a specific problem, so we think it can not only solve various reports and visualization needs within the company, but also empower more enterprises in the technical community and enhance Yixin's technical influence." "

When talking about the reasons and advantages of this award, Xu Xiang said: "This may be because Davinci can more accurately hit the pain points encountered in the construction and operation of users 'enterprises, really save time and economic investment for users and improve efficiency, so users express their recognition of us by voting.
