Introduction

A New Way to Work with Information
The Salient Difference:
Salient is pioneering a whole new information paradigm – one more flexible and
simpler than the old “push” method of reports. It’s a zero-overhead, self-service,

For the first time, managers and workers can help themselves quickly and regularly

time-consuming efficient

Interactive data-mining technology gives you the most powerful forensic tool on
the market today. Payments and events outside the norm immediately pop out at
you in a graphical presentation.

You get a powerful telescope into business performance. You’ll see a clear,
coherent picture of where spending works and where it does not. You’ll see details
instantly, exactly customized to the situation of the moment.

Some call our technology a hybrid of the best in performance management,
business intelligence, and content management.

What you’ll get from Salient:

Coherency – an ability to make sense out of all of the data generated every day by
every business activity

Transparency – an ability to see immediately exactly how every action and every
person contributes to the mission at every level

Controllability – a way for every contributor to use the same data to continually
improve his or her practices

Salient ETL ™

Salient solutions are designed around your
business objectives. ETL makes it easy.
Salient ETL saves the settings for all of these tasks in Salient ETL facilitates the creation
a single project file (.XML), so you can open the project and automation of a complete
solution for Salient UXT®. Using
and modify settings as necessary. Salient ETL, you can:

including the length, type, format, and header information, as entered in
design mode. Automate the
transformation and other
processes, so that you can
run the UXT system and
obtain regular data updates
with minimal administrative
tasks.

Map
Once you have designed the solution, you can use map mode
to map data from a variety of data sources so that they can be
easily transformed to formatted UXT files. The resulting files
include the required Acquire headers and record layout as
specified in design mode. The transformation places the fields
in the correct order, length, and format, in the output records,
so that the files are ready to be applied to the UXT system.

For each UXT file, you set up a transformation that defines
the data source, and matches the fields in the UXT file to
the corresponding fields in the data source. A complete UXT
solution will store transformation settings for several UXT files in
addition to the schema files created in design mode. Once you Salient ETL Map Mode View

have set up the transformation for a UXT file, you can run it in
map mode to verify the results. After the results are verified, we
recommend using automation mode to run the transformations
for regular updates to the UXT system.

Automate
You can use automation mode to run multiple file
transformations, manage files, start and stop the UXT Server,
run Acquire to apply files, back up the solution, and more. In
other words, you can perform all of the tasks necessary to create
and update a complete UXT solution in automation mode. Each
file transformation or other action is referred to as a “process.”
You can set up multiple processes in nearly any order and then
store them in a runtime group so that you can easily run the
entire group of processes by calling Salient ETL from a batch

file or other automated procedure. You can also run processes
from within Salient ETL.

Salient UXT® Universal Exchange Technology II. Organize & Accelerate

Salient UXT® is a super-scalable

Super High Performance Query Processing Ventana Research
Traditional BI has limitations (such as data explosion and lack of granularity) Article ID: M05-29
caused by pre-summary and pre-calculation of answer sets. The UXT multi-
dimensional design avoids these limitations by means of a unique “associative”
data management strategy. This data management strategy associates every
entity relationship in the data and then re-associates it at query time. This
way it eliminates summary hierarchies, predetermined drill paths and drill
procedure.

Embedded Mining and Analysis Tools
UXT facilitates interactive mining and visualization: it eliminates the need
to “set up” or “re-state” drill paths and calculations. Users can redirect
their interest to higher or lower levels of detail, or to different attributes and
dimensions of information.

As they do so, the full screen will refresh instantly with each click. Shifting
analytical forms is just as easy: users can click on graphical icons that
represent different ways of looking at data. Taking advantage of the rich suite
of tools embedded into UXT, users can instantly shift between comparisons,
exceptions, distributions, and correlative trends, as well as a host of
combinations of these forms.

recipient, asset, etc., in just a few clicks.
• Organize the data using simple drop-down menus.
• Use collections to selectively filter results.
• View performance with analyses such as comparative, distribution
(scattergram), and time-series (trend). For any of these, click a button
to switch between numbers and graph formats.
• Change the time period to see days, weeks, months, periods, or year-to-

can “load” any section of the master database on nearly any computer and
“go” mobile, without any network or Internet connection.

Fast Start-Up: Load & Go takes just a few minutes to install and run, providing

How are we doing geographically, do any warehouses need

Should we consider re-routing because of where certain accounts
are in proximity to one another?
Which accounts geographically are “in the yellow” or “in the red”
– not meeting expectations? Location by Volume – Here markers show volumes for
each location. The largest, darkest circles represent
the highest volumes.

Geo connects to mapping web sites
You can link points on the map to popular mapping sites on the Internet (for
example, Google™ Maps). This integration provides several capabilities. For
example, click on a point on the map to get driving directions, satellite images,
related web sites, and more. You can even include your own labels, such as
customer names, on the resulting maps. The functionality is available with
InfoShare and may be licensed separately. Location by Margin – Just click to change the data
field. Now, the largest circles represent the greatest
margins.

Geo connects to mapping websites The circle tool lets you select locations within a certain
radius and then list them out.


Geo™ Point and Click Location Intelligence IV. Additional Capabilities (SIM™)

Ge

Mapping by attribute
Location markers typically indicate magnitude or change, but you can easily
switch to a view showing location attributes (for example, type, territory, etc.).
Different types of markers indicate characteristics of the location. These maps
can reveal inconsistencies, inefficiencies or areas of opportunity.
Attributes – Mapping by channel.
Thematic maps
View averages and totals for areas within the map. Shades of color can indicate
the average, total, difference, or percent change for all the locations within each
region, state, county, town, etc. Spot areas with unusually high or low results,
compare percent change across counties, get an easy overview of geographic
trends. Thematic mapping is available together with or instead of mapping by
location. Thematic – Average price across counties. The darkest
counties have the highest prices.

Demographics
Map layers oftentimes contain valuable statistics about demographics (income,
sex, age, family size, ethnicity, etc.). Salient Geo can use this information,
plotting it on the map for easy integration with your data. Like thematic
mapping, each area within the map is shaded bases on its demographic average
or total. This provides valuable new insights for marketing, planning, product
assortments, penetration, etc.
Demographics – Average age across county
subdivisions. The darkest counties have the highest
Then use one or more of the following tools: average age.

- Select an individual location or area
- Select locations or areas within a square, circle or polygon
- Reverse the selection (i.e. select all locations not currently selected)

Once you’ve selected locations, click to list them out along with their
performance metrics, or turn them into a collection for further analysis. Highlight Characteristics – Highlighting makes it easy to
spot locations with significantly decreased volumes.

To find out more about a single location, just right-click on it. A pop-up window
shows its attributes and description.

Spatial Relationships – Customers (circles) and assets
(red squares) appear together on the map.
