Timelion is a time series data visualizer that enables you to combine totally
|
|
independent data sources within a single visualization. It's driven by a simple
|
|
expression language you use to retrieve time series data, perform calculations
|
|
to tease out the answers to complex questions, and visualize the results.
|
|
|
|
For example, Timelion enables you to easily get the answers to questions like:
|
|
|
|
* How many pages does each unique user view over time?
|
|
* What's the difference in traffic volume between this Friday and last Friday?
|
|
* What percent of Japan's population came to my site today?
|
|
* What's the 10-day moving average of the S&P 500?
|
|
* What's the cumulative sum of all search requests received in the last 2 years?
