Professional services accelerates successful adoption by helping teams achieve in weeks what would normally take months, guiding them with deep product expertise and built-in best practices. They onboard teams quickly, reduce time to impact, and ensure they leave with real tests ready to use in their pipelines. — Mush Honda, Chief Quality Architect at Katalon Follow Katalon for more insights in our series!

Most teams still operate on BI built for yesterday — disconnected dashboards, slow workflows, and constant back-and-forth between data and business teams. Expectations for speed, insight, and autonomy have never been higher. On Dec. 10, ThoughtSpot is unveiling a new generation of AI agents that close the BI gap and unify your data, your people, and your decisions. Whether you lead data strategy, run a business function, or build analytics experiences, you’ll see how agents transform decision-making on day one.

Your dashboard has several insights. But which ones to really focus on right now? Introducing AI Highlights—the most powerful way to analyze key metric changes. AI Highlights: This is Data to Decisions, Powered by Agents. Get the insights that matter most, instantly. See how easy automated insight discovery can be! Go beyond static, pre-defined views! Discover the future with Next Gen Liveboards in ThoughtSpot.

JavaScript dates look simple until they’re not. Here’s the second way to create a date: pass the components manually. Year, month, day, hour, minute—each as a separate number. And anything you skip defaults to zero. So you can write just the year, month, and day like this……but there’s a catch coming.

Connecting Druid to Power BI shouldn’t require hacks—and it definitely shouldn’t require exporting CSVs. Here’s the part nobody says out loud: Microsoft built Power BI’s connector architecture around ODBC, not JDBC or REST. So if your Druid cluster is built for lightning-fast analytics but your users can’t access it natively, that’s not a Druid problem… that’s a connector problem. This video shows how the Simba Druid ODBC Driver solves that in minutes.

Stop building data connectors from scratch. Start shipping features faster. Your customers want access to more data sources, but your engineering team is already stretched thin. Sound familiar? In this video, we break down how redistributable connectivity drivers can accelerate your product roadmap without adding technical debt. If you're building analytics tools, reporting platforms, visualization apps, or any software that needs to connect to data, this is for you.
