History
Dimensional Insight was founded in 1989 by Frederick A. Powers and Stanley R. Zanarotti.[1] It has subsidiaries in the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong, and the Netherlands.
Products
Dimensional Insight's flagship product, The Diver Solution (Diver), is a business intelligence suite that allows users to combine multiple internal and external data sources into a single data feed that enables secure, role-based access to data via interactive dashboards and reports. Diver can also be used to send email alerts, to create PDFs, or to download data into Excel files.[citation needed]
The full suite consists of the following tools:
- integ/visualintegrator - an ETL (extract/transform/load) capable of extracting textual data from many sources, and transforming it into whatever format is needed
- builder/visualbuilder - a tool used to build many dimensional, pre summarized, data models suitable for use in ad hoc and pre-canned queries
- diver/prodiver - a visual data exploration tool, and a tool for preparing pre-prepared data views
- diveline - a web based interface to the data models
Diver can be delivered as an on-premises installation, with the complete Diver suite of tools; an appliance installed on-premises but managed by Dimensional Insight; or a software-as-a-service (SaaS) application.[citation needed]
In addition, Dimensional Insight develops specific applications to meet reporting and analytics needs of both healthcare as well as supplier, manufacture, and distributor organizations.[2] These applications include a revenue and expense tracking tool, productivity analysis tools, and a suite of executive dashboards, as well as physician scorecards, surgery scorecards, and a certified Meaningful Use solution.[citation needed]
