Kyvos is a business intelligence acceleration platform for cloud and big data platforms developed by an American privately held company named Kyvos Insights. The company, headquartered in Los Gatos, California, was founded by , CEO of . The software provides OLAP-based multidimensional analysis on big data and cloud platforms and was launched officially in June 2015.[1][2] In December the same year, the company was listed among the 10 Coolest Big Data Startups of 2015 by CRN Magazine.[3]

Technology[]

The software uses OLAP technology to enable business intelligence on the cloud and big data platforms.[4] In a report published by Forrester Research in 2016,[5] where they evaluated several native Hadoop business intelligence (BI) platforms on 22 parameters, Kyvos was referred to as a platform that gave new life to OLAP by bringing it to Hadoop. As per the report, Kyvos enables analysis on Hadoop based on OLAP schemas, aggregations, and predefined drill-down paths. It pre-calculates aggregates at multiple levels of dimensional hierarchies to improve query response times as compared to SQL-on-Hadoop platforms. Users can analyze data through the Kyvos visualization tool or by using other BI platforms.[5]

Kyvos was originally built for Hadoop and later on added support for Cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud[6] and Microsoft Azure.[7] Initially, it supported only MDX queries and integrated with data visualization tools such as Excel and Tableau.[8]  In 2017, Kyvos 4.0 added support for SQL connectivity extending integration to other BI tools such as Business Objects, Cognos, MicroStrategy, Power BI and Qlik.[9]

In late 2018, Version 5 of the software was built specifically for the cloud with elastic OLAP to provide a cloud native way to scale up and down for changing data workloads.[10][11]

With its 2020.2 release, Kyvos added support for Snowflake data warehouse.[12] The product was also made available on Microsoft Azure marketplace[13] and Amazon Web Services marketplace.[14]

In January 2021, MicroStrategy launched a new gateway connector for Kyvos with its latest version MicroStrategy 2021.[15]

In April 2021, Kyvos announced the general availability of Kyvos Free, a full-featured free version of their platform on the cloud.[16]
