ClearStory Data to Present Best Practices at First Data Visualization Summit


PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 10, 2013) - ClearStory Data, a company delivering a new big data solution that makes it simple for business users to find, combine and interactively analyze data from corporate and disparate third-party sources, today announced that Nick Rabinowitz will be presenting at the Data Visualization Summit in San Francisco on April 12, 2013.

In his session, Rabinowitz will discuss the dangers inherent to data visualization and demonstrate how to avoid falling into common pitfalls. Big data and the data visualization innovations that enable organizations to move beyond traditional, reporting-led methods of analysis are major themes of this year's Summit.

"With the breadth of technology and tools now available, organizations have the ability to create stunning visual representations of larger and more complex data," said Rabinowitz. "However, the ability to do so much can also undermine the ultimate goal of deriving meaningful insights with data. When used poorly, visualizations can obscure or misrepresent the underlying information, making it difficult or impossible to get real value from your data."

Who:
Nick Rabinowitz, ClearStory Data

What:
"Don't Look Now: The Dangers of Data Visualization"

When:
April 12, 2013 
12:20 pm PDT
