HyperIntelligence and its Architecture

HyperIntelligence and its Architecture

When you open a web page the extension automatically scans web pages in your browser and underlines keywords that you can hover over to trigger cards. Cards present predefined KPIs associated with a selected keyword sourced securely from MicroStrategy.

This feature is similar to what we see in web pages particularly stock related web sites. 
MicroStrategy introduced HyperCards, a new object that is built, managed, and deployed using MicroStrategy Workstation(Not by using Developer or Desktop as far as I know). Cards can be consumed in a web browser via the MicroStrategy HyperIntelligence Chrome extension and on iOS devices via the MicroStrategy HyperMobile app. This feature can help the users to inject Zero-Click Intelligence (as it requires the users to hover only and no need to click!) about customers, products, people, and more directly onto words within websites or web application or emails. This feature can display the content through the mobile devices to bring answers through relevant, context-based analytics.
HyperIntelligence assists the users to find a report without logging into the environment and then allows to locate relevant information. It brings answers directly to you through contextualized text analytics that is as simple as hovering over a highlighted word.
HyperIntelligence can be an interesting and exciting feature for all levels of report/analytics users as they can see the reports as they type on in emails as below:

Salient features of HyperIntelligence:
  • Enables the text analytics that is as simple as hovering over a highlighted word in your email or web browser.
  • HyperIntelligence automatically scans every web page and underlines relevant keywords. Hover over a highlighted word to see insights in real-time.
  • Each card can seamlessly combine information from multiple enterprise assets and applications.
  • The extension supports multiple cards for different use cases. Each card can point to a different keyword. Simply click the extension icon to see the list of available cards or toggle individual cards on or off.
  • By default, the extension will work with any web-based content, however it is possible to blacklist individual websites - disabling the extension's functionality.
Microstrategy 2019 enhances the HypeIntelligence features further by introducing vision voice screen etc with the the new features like Hypevoice, Hyperscreen and Hypervision.

Hypervoice:

This feature allows the users to ask questions to get instant answers through voice commands in a similar fashion as you interact with Alexa. MicroStrategy integration with Amazon Alexa or Google Home (Not sure about Apple Homepod integration) to turn analytics applications into a voice-enabled personal coach. Which could boost productivity by blending insights into existing workflows. Developers can leverage MSTR APIs to integrate with voice-controlled applications like Amazon Alexa and Google Home. With MSTR-developed NLG and voice recognition mechanisms, it could be easy to get answers to the business questions on the way to the next meeting. By integrating with voice technology or chatbots, it’s easy to deliver the right data, fast.

Hyperscreen:

Hyperscreen enables the personalized insights on every wall(screen) you walk through. It can turn a screen into a dynamic, intelligent display that presents a personalized view of information based on who is standing nearby. It uses the new feature called Digital Identity to transform offices and facilities into spaces that inspire data-driven collaboration and action.

Hypervision:

Here, the magic comes by embedding analytics with virtual reality. Hold up your device for an augmented reality experience that overlays insights on objects and surroundings. Use image recognition to scan products and check inventory, or use GPS location to get an instant customer brief as you walk into your meeting.

Architecture 

The above workflow can be described as:
  • HypeIntelligence extension from Google Chrome browser submits a REST API request to MicroStrategy cubes by requesting topic(attributes!) and metrics.Data received from MSTR cubes to the browser is cached.
  • When the user open the browser and opens a web page or types text in emails or open emails. 
  • The extension finds matches and highlights those matching keywords.
  • Users hovers the highlighted keyword.
  • Extension displays the hypercard as designed.
  • Once the extension gets the data it caches the data and display the data in Hypercards whenever a user hovers on the key word highlighted.
 Deliver Zero-Click Intelligence
 Combine Information from Multiple Systems
 Support Multiple Cards
 Blacklist Individual Websites

The architecture for HyperIntelligence is similar to MicroStrategy Library. MicroStrategy Library is a client application running on a desktop browser or a mobile device, whereas HyperIntelligence is currently only available as a Chrome browser extension. 
If we compare this architecture with the old Microstratgey architecture we see the additional component of MicroStrategy Library which makes all the magic of HyperIntelligence.
 Single node architecture: 

Multi Node Architecture:

Comparison between Single node i-server and multi node i-server:

HyperIntelligence Workflow 

Hover effects won’t work on mobile devices because there’s no mouse cursor. To overcome this MSTR has handled mobile links with high color and shape contrast on them so that user will know where to tap. So that it displays the cards.
I have not yet explored this feature when the email goes to external users and the data level security(security filters) work as we are not passing any security filters.Handling of row level security on the cards is still a mystery!

Create an alert-based subscription in MicroStrategy Distribution Services

Create an alert-based subscription in MicroStrategy Distribution Services on Web Subscription to a report or Report Services document which will be executed when a certain conditional threshold is met based on another executing report. For example, a scheduled report executes which shows the Revenue by day for the past week. If the Revenue on any one day falls below a certain value, a subscription to another report or Report Services document can be triggered and delivered to a recipient. An alert based subscription can only be created directly on a report; however, another report or Report Services document can be delivered when the alert based subscription is triggered. Note: you need a grid report to create an alert and you cannot create if you want to create on a document with text boxes. The following example will walk through the basic steps on how to setup a subscription based on an alert like this: Follow the brief  steps bel...

Relationship with Report Filter options for Levels metrics

Relationship with Report Filter options for Levels metrics You can define how the report filter affects the metric calculation. From the  Relationship with Report Filter  drop-down list, select one of the following: • To include only data that meets the conditions in the report filter in the metric calculation, select  Standard filtering . • To raise the level of the report filter to the level of the target, if possible, then apply the report filter to the metric calculation, select  Absolute filtering . For example, the report filter contains the Washington, DC, Boston, and New York call centers, but the Revenue metric is calculated at the Region level. Because Call Center is a child attribute of Region, the report filter's level is raised to the Region level, and the report filter is treated as if it includes the regions that contain Washington, DC, Boston, and New York (in this case, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast). Data from all call centers in the Mid-At...

Bursting file subscriptions Microstartegy

Bursting file subscriptions: Delivering  parts of reports across multiple files: Large MicroStrategy reports and documents are often broken up into separate pages by attributes. In a similar way, with Distribution Services, you can split up, or burst, a report or document into multiple files. When the subscription is executed, a separate file is created for each element of each attribute selected for bursting. Each file has a portion of data according to the attributes used to group data in the report (page-by axis) or document (group-by axis). Ex:, you may have a report with information for all regions. You could place Region in the page-by axis and burst the file subscription into the separate regions. This creates one report file for each region. As a second ex:, if you choose to burst your report using the Region and Category attributes, a separate file is created for each combination of Region and Category, such as Central and Books as a report, Central and Ele...

Metric values are repeated across rows when a report is executed in MicroStrategy

Metric values are repeated across rows when a report is executed in MicroStrategy When comparing report results between DB Query Tool and MicroStrategy, some reports show repeated metric values in MicroStrategy where there were none in DB Query Tool. To illustrate the issue, a fact table CAT_ITEM_SLS has been added into the MicroStrategy Tutorial project and populated with a small set of three rows. CAT_ID ITEM_ID REVENUE  1 1  10   1 2  20  2  2  30  Report results in DB Query Tool: Report results in MicroStrategy: In MicroStrategy, the row for "Art As Experience" in the Spring 2007 catalog repeats the $20 value from the Winter 2007 catalog, where DB Query Tool shows the $30 value from the fact table. CAUSE The discrepancy occurs because the attribute elements for Catalog and Item are in a many-to-many relationship, but the attribute relationship in the MicroStrategy schema is defined incorrectly w...
