“ActivePivot™ brings the flexibility we require to the world in which we work.”
Head of IT, European Investment Bank
Real Flexibility
"ActivePivot™ marries online analytical processing with real-time event management to deliver real-time push technology and the flexibility we require.”
In the current global economy companies need to know where they stand. What is the company’s actual position, right now? What is its available cash flow? What are its risks and where is the business exposed? Should the business be taking a more aggressive position, holding steady or cutting its exposures? What is the actual sales position versus available product?
Why ActivePivot?
Being able to view and analyse the latest information enables your firm to react immediately. However, traditional business intelligence (BI) tools or ad-hoc spreadsheets won’t necessarily provide all the information you need.
Many firms understand they need a real-time view of their current position but fear the cost and complexity of joining together legacy systems and data warehouses.
ActivePivot’s effective service orientated architecture fits easily with existing architecture and integrates multiple data sources quickly and effectively.
ActivePivot connects with data at its source and not via a warehouse, allowing instant analysis and the ability to view positions immediately across a number of dimensions.
ActivePivot uses the latest real-time push technology, meaning that information is always up to date. As an OLAP server, its hypercubes, with hierarchical dimensions, allow you flexible top down analysis that can be sliced through with simple navigation. Its in-memory indexing provides drill-through capabilities to reconcile aggregated values for any cell.
ActivePivot is developed with Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) connectivity letting business users see continuous real-time updates throughout the day presented through the interface of their choice.
ActivePivot in Finance
ActivePivot has been used successfully in a number of financial institutions, where complex and high risk markets demand quick decisions.
ActivePivot can help firms understand P&L and risk management, VaR and stress testing, cash flow and securities positions, all in real-time and irrespective of the number of dimensions and aggregation levels required.
