2. From Data Analytics to Dharma
Dharma is the reality that lies beyond our delusions and the reality about how these delusions give rise to suffering, and the implication of all of this on our conduct. Dharma is about the way we should behave in light of the way things are. It is both description and prescription. It is the truth and the way.

11. Interactive Visualizations Powered by DDR
Discovery Data Repository (DDR) Dashboard
The Data Set
Encounters and Patients counts were
reduced by looking for Encounters that
had a Diagnosis, Procedure, or Medication
The Challenge
~270,000,000 rows (Star Schema)
Complex Logic, non-tabular data model
Return results interactively and in an engaging way
Scalable
Performance is a priority

12. Use an Analytical Data Engine (SSAS) in the Cloud (Azure)
In a nutshell, SSAS technology helps to create OLAP cubes — a data structure that overcomes the limitations of relational databases by providing rapid analysis of data
Cloud Computing for High Performance.
