Xpress Insight is the technology componentof Xpress Optimization that allows you to rapidly configure business applications to operationalize your analytic and optimization models. It comes with built-in user and scenario management and provides user-friendly interfaces that allow users to visualize and collaborate on improved business decisions. FICO Xpress Insight 4.57.1 is now generally available on Windows and Linux.
Key features include:
Enhancements to insightcmd
The command line tool ‘insightcmd’ provides easy means to import or export Insight repositories, apps and/or scenarios. With this release, we have added the ability to import and export folders which is particularly useful for Insight apps using the project framework or in general when scenario planning is managed by folder hierarchy. Moreover, it is possible to export all apps into separate files for each app. App export files will be named after app names.
Enhanced Python-Insight integration:
With this release, we have added support for the test mode to include repository functions (themselves being introduced during last release). To this end, a new class ‘xpressinsight.RepositoryPath’ has been added which allows to construct a path to a scenario or folder.
Tableau support policy
