Weave Analytics is really smart for real-time data visualization

I like that it's open source so you can hack around with their components easily! It integrates very well into our Elasticsearch cluster since we were looking at switching from Solr/Lucene but also works great out of an ES instance too!! The UI leaves much be desired though - lots of work needs done there! Also while using Kibana integration could do better linking deeper docs links directly back up top rather than having them "underneath" other fields when clicked through via link button? Need more options available within this space if not already existing by now!? Real time analytics has been solved wonderfully here as opposed to trying and failing multiple times ourselves before finding solutions which integrated well wtihout being super expensive services etc. This gives immediate success wth no need to worry about setup delays over months/years prior where others often require lengthy periods between solving complex issues without giving enough info beforehand regarding what they expect results wise.. So far i'm happy however would consider taking advantage of all its features first then only moving towards adding custom development later down after gaining knowledge base experience. Our clients get instant insights upon viewing certain metrics without waiting hours or even days till reports / findings came thru email updates afterwards to dig further once received. As mentioned above getting stuck during implementation due difficulties understanding how some things interact together It's easy to get started with it if you know how to program! You can also easily add new features by extending its own libraries. The UI could be improved but I think that this will only improve over time. If you want an open source project where users help each other out getting things done faster then give weaviate a try. In my case there was no existing solution so i created one myself which solved our problems right away.

Pros
  • Has good community support for any questions along way including documentation wiki pages in many languages such PHP devs are most likely required anyway hence why language is provided free of charge :) Very flexible platform overall just lacking decent ui design currently tho.
Cons
