AWS QuickSight Timeline Gantt - amazon-web-services

I have data in my DB of my residential history, with start date and end dates. and different countries I have lived in.
For tax purpose I am trying to plot a chart to determine how many days in a financial year I have spent in a particular country.
Is there a way I can plot my residential timeline on a graph ?
doesn’t need to be financial year, Even If I am Able to plot it based on Calendar Year, I will have something to build on top of.

I was trying to create a Gantt chart in AWS Quicksight too but there isn't a built-in Gantt visualization in AWS Quicksight.
However, I was able to build a Gantt chart using Plotly express.
https://plotly.com/python/gantt/
For your use case, you can probably plot your residential history as a Gantt chart using the code below
import plotly.express as px
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame([
dict(Country="USA", Start='2009-01-01', Finish='2009-02-28'),
dict(Country="Canada", Start='2009-03-05', Finish='2009-04-15'),
dict(Country="France", Start='2009-02-20', Finish='2009-05-30')
])
fig = px.timeline(df, x_start="Start", x_end="Finish", y="Country", color="Country")
fig.show()
Residential History

Dynamic Column Values in Power BI

I have the below sample table and I want to make a filter where If I select Daily, to show the aggregated sales on a daily level with the days in the column headers, if I select monthly to show the months in columns and the aggregated sales for the month below and the same with week.
Is there any way using Dax or any other tool in PBI to allow me to have dynamic column values based on the filter?
Examples of same table and visuals below
Thank you
Sample Table
Monthly Filter
Weekly Filter
You can leverage time-intelligence hierarchy here. If your date field is datetime type, Power BI will auto-hierarchy this. Then you can drag the hierarchy date field into the visualization. By default it will include Year, Quarter, Month, Day.
You can remove the sections you don't need and then create bookmarks to snapshot certain filters.
This is one method to do this, let me know if it was helpful to get you going.

Forecast Budget Tool On Power Apps

Can Power Apps be used to build a tool that allow for budgeting and forecasting? Along the lines of Data Entry via form? and how can you go about this
The goal is to allow a user to write back a Budget / Forecast value to a sql server table.
Month Budget Forecast
Jan20
Feb20
Mar20
Apr20
.. etc
In addition, it will need to be designed to allow users to enter both budget and forecast via inventory level such as by Panel Class, by Format etc.
Either way, MonthYear or Inventory levels, the total values need to roll up to be the same. Similar to cubes on Board reporting tool.
Any tips?
In short, yes you can create form to submit data to the database and then analyze and display data in PowerBI. PowerApp and PowerBI can work together in many scenarios. Here you may have a quick idea of the possibilities..

Is it possible to visualize a Sprint burndown chart (or Burnup chart) from outside of Azure DevOps?

I'm trying to generate a consolidated view in some tool like Power BI so the top management of my organization can visualize in a single page the actual health of the projects and teams (in order to avoid the need of entering each project space in Azure DevOps).
I have already consumed successfully the Azure DevOps data from Power BI and I did some consolidated charts like open work items, work items by status, open bugs and so on; but I have no idea of what is the best aproach to show burnup and burndown charts.
Is there a way of embed this kind of charts outside Azure DevOps?
PS: In Microsoft documentation here there is an example to generate a Sprint burndown chart manually (from Power BI) but from my point of view it isn't so complete like native Sprint burndown chart here
Thanks!!

Custom Realtime Data in PowerBI Dashboards

I am new to the powerbi platform and have a challenge of scoping/converting an old dashboard solution to powerbi.
The old dashboard solution is custom made and refreshes data every minute.
Powerbi lists its refresh rate for 8 times a day for Pro and 48times a day on Enterprice. Does that means there is no option to provide the same realtime (1min) updates in a dashboard using powerbi?
Can you embed iframes or anything in a powerbi dashboard?
How can you do a realtime graph in powerbi if it only refreshes 8 times a day?
Refreshing data 8/48 times a day is applicable when you import data in Power BI dataset. But if you want "more recent" data, you can connect to your data source using DirectQuery mode. DirectQuery sends queries to your data source when rendering the report. If you apply a filter, the database will get a new query, and so on. Not every data source supports DirectQuery, e.g. you can't use it for flat files (obviously). You may want to take a look at Data refresh in Power BI article.
For embedding iframes in Power BI report you can use HTML Viewer custom visual.
By default when using DirectQuery mode, tiles pinned to a dashboard refresh automatically hourly (Datasets in DirectQuery/LiveConnect mode), but you can reduce this time down to 15 minutes:
A tile is a report visual pinned to a dashboard, and dashboard tile refreshes happen about every hour so that the tiles show recent results. You can change the schedule in the dataset settings, as in the screenshot below, or force a dashboard update manually by using the Refresh Now option.
However if you want to display real-time data in Power BI dashboard, it will be better to use push or streaming datasets. With push datasets you can programatically push data to the dataset and the data will be stored and you can use them in reports. Streaming datasets are similar to push, but they will keep only the last hour of data pushed to them and can't be used in report, only pinned to a dashboard. There are also other options, like using PubNub or Microsoft Flow. For more information also take a look at Real-time streaming in Power BI.

Informatica Scorecard metric score

Hello I am new to Informatica Analyst. I am trying to create a scorecard in Informatica Analyst. I was told to use a rule. I am using the rule for completeness, where it checks for nulls and blanks. I was told to only use the field that is the outfield (output from rul) when I do the scorecard. The scorecard comes out green rather than red. It comes out all green, but all the data is null. Can you please let me know what I am doing wrong? I also changed the percentage, but instead of getting a long red bar, like I got when it was green the red bar is only about 1/16 inch long. With all of the data being incomplete, I thought I would get a long red bar.
You can run and edit the scorecard in the Analyst tool. You can create and view a scorecard in the Developer tool. You can run the scorecard on current data in the data object or on data staged in the profiling warehouse.
You can view a scorecard in the Scorecards workspace. After you run the scorecard, you can view the scores on the Scorecard panel. You can select the data object and navigate to the data object from a score within a scorecard. The Analyst tool opens the data object in another tab.
You can perform the following tasks when you work with scorecards:
Create a scorecard in the Developer tool and add columns from a profile.
Optionally, connect to the Analyst tool and open the scorecard in the Analyst tool.
After you run a profile, add profile columns as metrics to the
scorecard.
Optionally, configure the cost of invalid data for each metric.
Run the scorecard to generate the scores for columns.
View the scorecard to see the scores for each column in a record. Drill down
on the columns for a score.
Edit a scorecard.
Set thresholds for each metric in a scorecard. Create a group to add
or move related metrics in the scorecard.
Edit or delete a group, as required.
View the score trend chart for each score to monitor how the score changes over time.
Optionally, view the cost trend chart for each metric to monitor the value of data quality.
View scorecard lineage for each metric or metric group.
