Redash is a data visualization tool designed to allow users to connect and query any data sources, build dashboards to visualize data and share them with a company.
Databricks acquired Redash in June 2020.
I selected Redash as it has a very easy-to-use SQL editor and is very fast to create dashboards. The main feature I like is you can publish your dashboards with just one click and share them among other people. Another thing is tool is open-source and you can self-host and save …
Kibana is indeed a powerful tool and has many use cases especially in environments that rely heavily on real-time log analysis and visualisation. Kibana’s ability to handle large volumes of log data and present it in an accessible, searchable format is invaluable. We use Kibana to monitor security related issues and it proactively alerts our Slack channels about any anomality or issues.
Redash is well suited to situations where metrics are tracked on daily, weekly and monthly basis. Alerts can be set to emails which helps stakeholders to monitor performance on a frequent basis. It is less appropriate for cases where only dashboards are needed. Redash comes into picture where individuals can query and check data at the same time.
Its usability is generally good and it provides teams with a basic to intermediate understanding about data visualization. It is very user-friendly when it comes to creating dashboards. The UI is very good and simple. Its integration with other tools for alerting and reporting is amazing. But its advance features have a learning curve and a first timer needs some time to use the advance features.
