Amazon QuickSight ML Insights
ML Insights leverages AWS’s proven machine learning (ML) and natural language capabilities to help you gain deeper insights from your data. These powerful, out-of-the-box features make it easy for anyone to discover hidden trends and outliers, identify key business drivers, and perform powerful what-if analysis and forecasting with no technical expertise or ML experience needed.
ML Insights is available as part of the QuickSight Enterprise Edition.
Discover hidden insights across your data
QuickSight’s ML-powered Anomaly Detection can continuously analyze all of your data to discover anomalies and variations inside of the aggregates, giving you the insights to act when business changes occur. Schedule automatic anomaly detection jobs across billions of metrics.
Perform accurate forecasting
Use ML-powered Forecasting to accurately predict your business metrics, and perform interactive what-if analysis with point-and-click simplicity. QuickSight’s built-in algorithms make it easy for anyone to use ML that learns from your data patterns to provide you with accurate predictions based on historical trends.
Generate easy to read Auto-Narratives
QuickSight can automatically generate natural language narratives that can be woven into your dashboards and reports to provide deeper context for users. Use customized calculations, and custom formatting that allow you to control the story you present to your users.
How it works
Use cases
Sales reporting
Automatically analyze sales metrics across store locations, product categories, SKUs, and customers. ML-powered anomaly detection allows you to continuously monitor your sales, learning from historical data patterns at the most granular level, surfacing hidden trends and anomalies. Easily detect insights that are buried in the aggregates, like higher or lower-than-expected sales for a particular product, location, or even an individual customer.
Web analytics
With ML Insights, you can monitor your usage behavior in your website or application and quickly understand which items are seeing spikes from a recent campaign you ran, how usage behavior is reacting to new features and enhancements, and what are the top contributors to those changes.
Financial planning
Accurately forecast your revenue with multiple levels of seasonality (like sales with weekly and quarterly trends). QuickSight automatically excludes anomalies, like spikes due to a price drop, so they don’t influence the predictions. QuickSight handles missing values so you don’t have to worry about cleansing and re-prepping your data beforehand. Perform interactive what-if analysis to determine the growth trajectory needed to meet business goals.
Embedded Analytics
You can easily embed QuickSight’s ML features and NL narratives into your applications and web portals. Create and publish dashboards in QuickSight and then embed those dashboards into your applications with single sign-on, and APIs using the AWS and QuickSight SDKs. Make changes to your live dashboards in minutes without writing code, or managing deployments.
