Architecture
The SwiftKnowledge for ISVs software is designed and developed to integrate seamlessly with all the major components of a BI solution – all SwiftKnowledge functionality and capability is ready to go on install. ISVs do not need to glue together separate SDK components because SwiftKnowledge technology is developed with craftsman-like quality to work together, or separately, as needed. And since ISVs are not required to spend considerable time and money building out the SwiftKnowledge technology, they instead can focus their efforts on more valuable endeavors, such as configuring the technology for embedding within their own solutions.
- Data model – Integrates data from disparate internal and external data sources to provide a unified, comprehensive view of critical information
- Data loading – Integrates with multiple platforms – such as IBM AS400, Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server – and supports multiple formats, including Microsoft Excel and Access
- Data security – Provides high standards of data security, reliability and integrity; secure networking standards protect data during transmission and display
- Data capacity – No limit to the number of users or database rows supported by SwiftKnowledge technology
- Data synchronization – Can be updated as frequently as needed and at the time(s) specified by the customer
- Data storage and archiving – Unlimited storage capacities; data archival determined by customer specifications
- Browser support – Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome
Patented Security and Scalability
SwiftKnowledge’s Interactive Data Streaming™ (IDS) uses virtual and physical tables combined with our proprietary packet engine to deliver extremely high performance and scalability in a cloud computing environment. In addition, our Component-Level Security™ (CLS) delivers targeted content, features and functionality according to a user’s role and profile, and secures data granularly down to the individual cell, for dramatically enhanced security and flexibility in a cloud computing environment.

Delivery Methods
SwiftKnowledge offers two ISV delivery methods; both utilize the same software code base, allowing for maximum efficiency and minimal risk.
- Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) – An application delivery service that enables accelerated deployment with a lower initial investment. The only client requirement is access to an Internet Explorer or Firefox browser. No desktop component installations, downloads nor ActiveX or Java applets are required.
- BI as an appliance – A unique, optimized, complete intelligence solution designed to provide cost and benefit advantages. It enables companies to “plug-in” the software and pre-built solutions, so they may begin using the product immediately. SwiftKnowledge also offers a remote implementation process designed to minimize labor cost and maximize margins by leveraging ISV pricing models.
Pricing
SwiftKnowledge customizes ISV solutions packages based upon specific client needs. Pricing options include by number of users, types of organizations, server demand, traffic (clicks) or session duration.
