Xpress Insight 5.5

Xpress Insight 5is the technology component of Xpress Optimization that allows you to rapidly configure business applications to operationalize your analytic and optimization models. It provides a Compute capability that enables remote execution of Xpress Solver and Xpress Mosel. It is built on an industry-standard architecture that is scalable, secure and resilient.

With this release we provide enhancements to the Tableau integration, e.g., VDL Actions  allowing to export Tableau views as pdf or images, as well as the ability to clear global filters. This release further introduces the ability to debug Python-based Insight scenarios in Xpress Workbench.

VDL & JS API enhancements:
  • VDL Tableau Parameters component to pass variables from a VDL View to Tableau Visualizations.
  • New VDL Actions
    • Export Tableau visualization in variety of formats.
    • Clear Global Filters ability to clear said filters in all or some Tableau visualizations.
    • Enhancement to VDL Action Group-By, allowing multiple dimensions in the grouping procedure.
  • Enhancements to the VDL view versioning:
    • Only major version may be specified.
    • The latest minor version of VDL will always be supplied for a view, no matter which minor version is specified in the VDL Version property.
Enhancements for Python-based Insight apps:
  • A new protocol has been added to Insight that allows live debugging for Python-based Insight apps from Xpress Workbench.
  • xpressinsight Python module now supports "multiprocessing" package, and Series or DataFrame can now be indexed multiple times using the same entity.
Note: Xpress Insight 5 is not yet available under the FICO Xpress Community License.
