Explorium vs. pandas

We need to constantly measures costs in our health business and we forecast pricing acoording to several values and conditions. Explorium works quite good analysing simple datasets, but when hierahies start to increase, meaning 6-10 olap variables, the system start to slow down quite a bit until was no longer to retrieve the info we required. This is why we test several tools, because even world-class solutions we purchase, don´t do the job we need. Explorium is a good tool, but complexity will be a minus in some scenarios.

Pandas are great for quick and relatively simple analytics and visualizations

Pandas work well for exploratory ad-hoc analytic work

But , We had little success in implementing complicated predictive analytics. And large data sizes can be a problem.

• Data ready for consumption.
• Good enough relationships between entities.
• Nice integration with other players. That's a good thing.

• It is easy to do statistical analysis
• It is easy to clean the data
• It is easy to produce graphs and charts to visualize

• relationships between entities could be better. Would be great to have scenarios.
• The data normalized needs improvement. Works pretty good, but it needs more refinement when using AND-OR Formulas that came from various datasets.

• There are a lot of libraries and ways to do visualization. Sometimes it is very confusing.
• Error handling can be a challenge. Sometimes the error messages do not provide valuable clues for the debugging.
• In our case, there are a bunch of different frameworks and libraries working together. I would rather work with one framework, well tuned for my use case

Over the years, we tried a lot of different frameworks and tools, homegrown and commercial. Pandas provide the best results.

It is lightweight, flexible and easy to implement.

The simplicity of the tool is an advantage. The integrations as well work quite well. All these solutions have worked well until some point and what we have discovered over the years is that we need to combine various solutions. There is no such thing as one tool ruling them all. Explorium works quite well until we start testing more advanced relations, and here, the tool is promising but requires a little work.

All these frameworks are great for gathering data and providing some initial analysis. But for real performance debugging work one needs more than tools provided by this tools. That's where the pandas excel.

• Positive. The time save in analysis per hour of internal consulting was the best compared to our SAP and Cognos solutions.
• In term of objetives works as stated, but when using multi-conditions of dataset, start the issues.

• Performance debugging was time consuming and mostly poorly automated exploratory process. Once we started use pandas for these tasks, it really moved the needle. Pandas are instrumental to provide actionable insights. As a result we were able to improve notably cloud software resource utilization and performance
• Analytics implemented with pandas allow us to detect and. address problems in our APIs before they are notable to our customers
