5.10. Charting Grids and Pivot Grids

The Charting tools in Aqua Data Studio are for Business Analysts and Developers who want to analyse trends in stocks or get a dynamic view of data. The features include support for Candlestick, High Low Close, Bubble, Scatter, Surface, Stacked, Area, Pie, Bar, Column and Line Charts. The Function Series introduced in Aqua Data Studio are a special series that makes use of other data series for their data values. You can select any of the function series to be combined with the standard chart types already available in ADS. It also includes support for 2D and 3D coordinate systems. Advanced options to Merge Series and Scripting charts for reuse are also available.

Features of Charting Tools

  • You can execute SQL Queries to produce Column Charts, Stacked Charts, Area Charts, Bar Charts, Pie Charts, Line Charts, Surface Charts, Candlestick, High Low Close, Bubble, Scatter Charts
  • Function Series for Add, Subtract, Scalar, Power, Log, Moving Average and Linerar Regression
  • Chart options include 2D and 3D views

Grid and Pivot Grid feature can be invoked in the Query Analyzer to create a variety of Charts to represent the data in tables. Features in ADS for complex charting help minimizing the development cycle.

Types of Charts available in ADS

Below are the charts which Aqua Data Studio Can generate. All of these can be built from direct quiries to any of the databases which Aqua Data Studio can connect to.
