DSPanel Launches Free Data Visualization Creation Software, Canvas Visualization Workspace

LOS ALTOS, Calif., April 3, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DSPanel today announced the availability of the latest addition to Performance Canvas Studio product group, Canvas Visualization Workspace. Canvas Visualization Workspace enables business savvy data developers the opportunity to create cutting edge data visual templates to work on-top-of any data source. These templates allow the data developer complete freedom to create the most useful, information rich, easy-to-understand templates they can deploy on-top-of any data source. They can then upload these templates to be used by the business community to display their data, creating a collaborative workspace for business users to match their data to a pre-defined template.

Canvas Visualization Workspace works along with D3 and Protovis, two open source visualizations frameworks, enabling the graphical representation of any number data set. Using these frameworks along with Performance Canvas, business savvy data developers will be able to create unique, business driven data representations.

"Canvas Visualization Workspace will revolutionize the ways data users develop visualizations," explains DSPanel CTO Niklas Derouche. "Users will no longer be tied to the same over-used visualizations that come as standard in dashboarding software, but will be able to create a unique visualization that works with the data they are representing and the audience they are trying to reach, they can then embed this visualization right in their dashboard or corporate portal."

Canvas Visualization Workspace works on Performance Canvas Studio technology. The same extensible, flexible browser based self-service product that enables users to drag-and-drop visualizations and design reports in an agile WYSIWYG environment without needing to know complex query languages such as MDX. Canvas Visualization Workspace can be deployed on-site or it the cloud.
