Development of a Centralized Dashboard Aggregation Platform for Enterprise Data Visualization

The organization faces difficulties in providing seamless, unified access to multiple analytics dashboards such as Tableau and PowerBI used across various departments. This fragmented approach hampers productivity, data-driven decision-making, and internal recognition of data contributors, leading to inefficiencies and limited organizational insight.

A large enterprise in the financial sector seeking to streamline access to data analytics and reporting tools across the organization.

• Create a centralized application that aggregates dashboards and analytics tools used across the enterprise.
• Improve accessibility, enabling all employees and business partners to easily access essential data in a consistent, tabular format.
• Increase productivity by streamlining dashboard discovery and access processes.
• Empower internal contributors to showcase and endorse their dashboards, fostering recognition and collaboration.
• Leverage cloud-based, scalable architecture to ensure high availability and performance as organizational data needs grow.

• Dashboard aggregation from diverse analytics tools (e.g., Tableau, PowerBI) into a unified platform.
• User authentication and role-based access control to ensure secure and appropriate data visibility.
• Search and filtering functionalities to quickly locate dashboards and reports.
• Internal showcasing mechanism for users to endorse and promote specific dashboards.
• Responsiveness and accessibility across various devices and platforms.

• Connecting to existing analytics tools like Tableau and PowerBI for dashboard retrieval and embedding.
• Integration with organizational authentication systems (e.g., IAM, SSO) for secure access.
• Potential integration with internal data repositories or APIs for supplementary data sources.

• Scalability to support increasing numbers of dashboards and users without performance degradation.
• High availability and fault tolerance inherent in serverless architectures.
• Data security and compliance with organizational policies, including secure data transmission and access controls.
• Performance targets ensuring dashboard access latency remains below a predefined threshold (e.g., <2 seconds).

Implementing the centralized dashboard aggregation platform is expected to significantly boost organizational productivity by simplifying access to vital analytics, promote internal recognition of dashboard contributors, and support scaling of data visualization efforts. Based on previous similar initiatives, anticipated outcomes include improved dashboard accessibility leading to a notable increase in data-driven decision-making efficiency and a reduction in time spent searching for reports.
