Tibco Software has launched SilverSpotfire offering that is designed to enable users to create, publish and share custom dashboards or reports for business analytics and business intelligence (BI) in the cloud.

The company claimed that its new offering enables visual analytics and interactive dashboards to be created and published to the cloud in minutes without requiring setup or infrastructure.

It is available at no charge for one-year and provides an authoring client, web-based sharing and hosting for the user’s Spotfire application.

Tibco Software said that its Silver Spotfire offering can be integrated with social media and allows users to embed live dashboards into their business blogs and online articles.

Rock Gnatovich, COO of Spotfire at Tibco Software, said: "We have now made it possible for anyone to analyse information and uncover compelling new insights from any data – whether for assignments at work, such as sales and marketing reviews, budgeting and planning or project management, as well as projects at home, such as reviewing personal stock portfolios or analysing fantasy sports teams.

"For this reason, Tibco is making our new offering a quick and simple program, unlocking dashboards, analytics, and BI for anyone."
