MicroStrategy Library
MicroStrategy Library is an interactive application of the MicroStrategy Business Intelligence platform that lets business users harness the analytical power of MicroStrategy in a simple, clean, and modern user interface.
MicroStrategy Library provides MicroStrategy reporting and analysis capabilities across all of your client interfaces, including Web, iOS, and Android devices. MicroStrategy utilizes the intuitive workflows of these interfaces to let users explore information that is valuable to them. MicroStrategy Library also provides application developers a new way to develop and deploy applications that is faster, easier, and more maintainable than using traditional Integrated Development Environments.
MicroStrategy Library offers the following benefits:
- Reduces the time to deploy new applications: MicroStrategy Library includes the infrastructure needed to support each new dashboard that is shared with your users so that application developers only need to focus on creating robust analytic applications once, that can be consumed across any client interface
- Easy for non-developers to create professional applications: MicroStrategy dashboards do not require any coding. Using MicroStrategy's authoring interface, applications are assembled in a point-and-click fashion that can be designed once to consume everywhere. Application designers can choose from an array of displays and controls and author content to be optimized for the change in screen size across different interfaces.
- Easy for companies to rapidly deploy application updates: MicroStrategy Library uses an on-demand form of application deployment, allowing a dashboard author to make changes to specific dashboards and have those changes reflected in each user's Library without any additional action by the content consumer.
- One design for all devices: Library's ability to render the same application across different device operating systems and interfaces means less development time, less application management, and quicker support for a heterogeneous deployment of devices.
