DB2 Alphablox

DB2® Alphablox enables further data analysis and representation capabilities for WebSphere® Business Monitor dashboard views.

WebSphere Business Monitor monitoring, analysis, and reporting capabilities are enhanced by DB2 Alphablox supporting services. DB2 Alphablox provides a set of supporting services for further data analysis and representation capabilities.

DB2 Alphablox technology is embedded directly in WebSphere Business Monitor Dashboard views. In a rich business context, DB2 Alphablox enables extensive data analysis and representation capabilities by the use of visual Blox, as in the context of building blocks, to create highly interactive tables, graphs, charts and reports.

Each of the major Blox enables users to interactively explore and analyze data. For example, you can export data to Adobe PDF files or Microsoft® Excel spreadsheets, hide columns in a report, create traffic-light style reports based on specified column values, and alter the format of a displayed chart. You can also drill, pivot, and sort data in tables.
