Key Driver Analysis Enhancements

  • Segment name filtering vastly improved, allowing for partial matches
  • Dimension value multi-select can now be typed before all options have loaded
  • We’ve removed the rank column in the Segment table to provide a cleaner look
  • We added the option to “Like” or “Dislike” specific segment. This data will be used to further improve the ranking models
  • Improved Segment Table cell numerical formatting

Trend Detection Enhancements

  • Now week binning aligns with the organization’s settings
  • Chart’s vertical axis now can be formatted with percentages

Core Engine

Analyses speed gets a boost — Sisu strives to provide customers with deep, actionable insights by processing data in real-time. Ingestion of customers data accounts for a significant portion of performing a Sisu analysis. The team has rolled out a new distributed data plane architecture that allows us to run analyses ‘closer’ to the customer’s data, utilizing the same cloud provider and a cloud region closer to the customer data. This can yield a 90% reduction in data loading times in some cases.

Key Driver Analysis Improvements

  • More readable Segment Table — We heard your feedback, and improved what you see by default in the segment table. Now, segments are sorted by Impact by default, and grouped by rows i.e. see segments of first order. We also show you more relevant data: % Change in value, % Change in size. You can still see “relative change” and “Confidence” by clicking on the “+” column button.
  • The “Recommended” Quick Sort now has improved logic that takes into consideration multiple columns: impact, % change in size, % change, etc. to recommend segments that might be most useful to look at.

💡 Did you know? You can click on the drop-down next to “Segment Name” or any other column title and filter segments and dimensions, as well as sort them as per what you think is more relevant.

Sisu App Experience

Named API Keys — API keys are issued to allow customers to access Sisu functionality. By design, the API keys are cryptic, lengthy and hard for humans to understand. When generating an API key, customers can now provide an easy to reference, human readable name for their API keys. This will allows users to better manage multiple API keys when using Sisu’s external APIs.

API

More segment details now available in the Analysis API — All calculations will be returned in analysis results by default. Here is a sample section of the Analysis results with the new calculations in the response:

                        "Change": -14035.643245,
"Change in size": -0.4822598577334499,
"Mix effect": 0,
"Net effect": -22.09602603542628,
"Net relative effect": 0,
"Rate effect": -22.09602603542628,
"Relative % change": -0.9280667114551557,
"Relative change": -1739538.3199999488,
"Relative mix effect": 22.09602603542628,
"Unweighted change in average": -45.81767626124708,
"Weight": -44678,
"Weighted change in sum": -2047042.139999997

Bug Fixes

Data source connection viewer can now load a large number of tables — Customers sometimes have thousands of tables for a given connection. Previously this degraded performance and froze the app in Sisu’s query editor. We’ve fixed this issue.

Key Driver Analysis Improvements

  • Count Distinct is now available for Key Drivers Analysis! You can use Count Distinct as a metric measure! This will be helpful to users who want to run their analysis with this type of aggregation on dimensions. It is supported now for all Key Drivers Analyses (KDAs).
  • Key Drivers Analysis page improvements.
    • You can now sort by the rank column too! The rank column is the first grey column in a segment table that has the “rank” for each segment given.
    • Now we show you both the change and change % on the KDA headline for metrics without a rate measure. No more hovering over the % change to see the actual value.

Sisu App Experience

  • Share analyses and/or dashboards to users via Email. Users can now share an analysis or dashboard to a list of users via email. Just click on the Share button (top right, next to the Run button) and select any existing Sisu users or invite new users via email from the analysis page itself! New users will be added as View Only users by default. This makes it frictionless for analysts to share an analysis or dashboard they’re excited about to many stakeholders in their team
  • List Analyses for a Metric. Users can now see the list of analyses for any metric in the “metrics” tab. When viewing the list of metrics, the user can click on the “# Analyses” link in the table to see this list.

API

  • The metrics API includes the metric unit information now. This simplifies and standardizes the unit formatting and our presentation for customers’ reporting and sharing needs.
    "metrics": [
    {
    "createdAt": "2022-11-21T23:02:30.721071Z",

    },
    ...
    ..

    Bug Fixes

    1. Fix Data Source deletion timeouts. When initiating data source deletion, especially in cases where data size was extremely large, the data source deletion was timing out. Now, your data source delete completes successfully.
    2. Better error for out-of-range time period on the trends page
    3. Natural Language List View had a bug, we were decreasing each segment by 100%, no more! This is fixed.

Key Driver Analysis Improvements

  • Results of an analysis loads faster than ever!
    • With our incremental results feature, you can see segments in seconds and not minutes anymore — Sisu now intelligently first shows all order 1 segments as soon as they are ready, then add order 2’s, and, then finally, add order 3’s to the segment results.
  • Waterfall gets better results upfront
    • Gone are the days where you will find overlapping segment names, or a big “All Other” bar that doesn’t explain the change in your metric. Now, waterfall mostly has order 1 segments, and a few order 2 segments to showcase most explaining segments first. And, the color of segment’s waterfall also matches the direction of the segment table.
  • Show/hide columns more intuitively on Segment table
    • You said, we heard it. Users can click on the “+” button at the end of the segment table (see screenshot below) to show/hide columns that can explain your segment results. Also, find their definition in a new improved dialog-box to select/de-select columns.
  • Available to preview in Beta! Reach out to your Sisu friend to turn the switch on for you! Help us help you find your insights faster.
    • SisuRank algorithm for segment table — new secret sauce algorithm that cuts through the noise, and recommends the most most promising segments first. Ask your Sisu friend to turn the switch on for you!
    • Dimension management algorithm — new secret sauce algorithm that tells you which dimensions (not segments) are the the biggest drivers of your KPI

Sisu App Experience

  • Slack App Directory Availability
    • Sisu’s application for Slack is now officially available in the Slack App Directory! This means our application is fully approved for use by the Slack team, that included a full security audit. This opens the door to onboard customers that only want to install/ use our Slack App from Slack’s official marketplace.
    • https://sisudata.slack.com/apps/A03EHN3MDG9-sisu?tab=more_info
  • Edit Metric Dataset and KPI (Enabled for all customers)
    • Customers can now change the KPI dimensions, the calculation type, the metric dataset and the Data Warehouse (DW). When making these changes, Sisu will preserve the downstream filters and analyses that contain dimensions that are present in the new dataset.
      • Helps customers during DW migration (e.g.,moving from proof of concept to full warehouse integration)
      • Delete or change dimension types in a dataset.
        • Before: Customers could not change the dimension datatypes or remove dimensions from a dataset used by a metric
        • Now: Customers can create a new data set, copy an existing dataset, make any edits they would like, and point it to an existing metric
    • Dashboard Filters
      • Customers can now apply filters to their dashboards. This empowers analysts to setup dashboards that can be used by multiple stakeholders who may each be interested in different slices of their dataset. Each filter corresponds to a single dataset on the dashboard. Here are some use cases that are now possible:
        • Generate a URL (that is unique per filter) for sharing with other stakeholders
        • View-only stakeholders can change filters without impacting filters others observe. This makes it possible to safely share dashboards with large audiences.
        • Customers can add filters relevant to each dataset if they have a dashboard with analyses spanning multiple data sets.

API

  • Initial launch of the modify analysis API — We’ve created an ability to modify an existing analysis. Using an API, we can now modify the configuration settings of an existing analysis. Users will have the ability to update the following - Analysis name, Group names (for Group compare analyses), Time ranges, Time dimension name - using this API.
  • Initial launch of the Waterfall API — We’ve introduced a new API that can be used to generate a waterfall chart. A waterfall chart helps to succinctly view the top-level changes to the KPI. It visually illustrates the key group of drivers to target, that together would have the biggest effective on the KPI.

Product Enhancements

  1. Key Driver Analyses
    1. Introducing Confidence buckets (High/Medium/Low) for each segment so you can easily tell whether a segment’s impact on the metric is due to noise or has statistical relevance.
    2. The time comparison selector on the KDA page now allows you to reset the date range to default
    3. The minimum subgroup size now shows up as a top-level configuration item for better visibility
  2. Trend Detection
    1. We now also show trends for any 2 and 3 segment combinations! This makes it easier to find those higher order segment combinations that might be driving your metrics.
    2. You can also set the maximum number of segment combinations you want Sisu to automatically analyze in the “Configure Analysis” menu
    3. The effects of monthly seasonality are now accounted for in the anomaly detection algorithm!
  3. Dashboards
    1. Resizable Dashboard Waterfall tile: Waterfall charts are one of Sisu’s most differentiated visualizations describing metric change - they can now be resized and better fit into dashboards.
    2. Named dashboard delete modals: When the user is asked to confirm deletion of a dashboard, the modal question now includes the dashboard name, re-enforcing to the user what they’re deleting.
  4. API access for get/set Key Driver Analyses Filters
    1. Through a POST request to api/v1/analyses/{analysis_id}/filters users may now overwrite filters in a previously defined KDA/trend
    2. Through a GET request to api/v1/analyses/{analysis_id}/filters users may now view the defined filters on a KDA/trend
    3. This will allow for programmatic bulk creation of similar analyses with different segment filters in conjunction with the duplicate KDA API operation (in-progress)
  5. Metric setup
    1. We are working towards making Metric definitions more editable without impacting downstream analyses. As a first step you can now change metric calculation type and the metric dimension!
    2. During metric setup, the input for adding a time dimension now validates that the selected time dimension is in the correct format!
    3. Null Handling in Metrics: When Null or NaN value is present in weighted average or numeric rate metrics, analysis and exploration would return different data for the same metric. This feature fixes the discrepancy by excluding null by default from the above weighted metrics. The user can decide whether they want to include null values in the calculation.
  6. Renaming Initiative
    1. Renamed several keywords found in the app to align with industry lingo
      1. Subgroup is now Segment
      2. Fact is now Segment
      3. Column is now Dimension
      4. Slope is now Trend

Bugs Fixed

  1. Core Engine
    • Fixed sampling v1 row count statistic
    • Mitigate email errors from empty data-frame run
  2. Dashboard/Exploration Tiles — Fix exploration chart tile popover getting clipped
  3. Analysis page — filter and compare fields were using display name instead of actual column name
  4. Trend Detection — Users seeing slow trend creation times due to a custom call retrieving start/end trend dates should see now a max of 3 seconds before the new trend is created

New Features

  1. [Beta] Anomaly detection

    • We have launched a beta version of anomaly detection for business metrics! Using anomaly detection, customers can quickly identify unexpected increases or decreases in a metric.
    • Anomalies are determined by first calculating the range of expected values for a given metric for each day (or week). The metric value is flagged anomalous for data points where the metric value was outside of the range of expected values.
    • Anomaly Detection is included as part of our Trend Detection analyses. No special configurations needed.
    • Multiple anomalies in a row may mark the beginning of a new trend that may take a few more data points (days or weeks) to be confirmed as a true trend change vs. just an anomaly.
    • To learn more, see the following video: https://www.loom.com/embed/ba79c41d4b4b4d869cddca0b364ba6d6

    Untitled

  2. [Beta] Unified Workflows for Key Driver Analyses

    • Customers using the “High Accuracy” Top-Driver model can now see statistically-selected “top driver” subgroups alongside all other subgroups, without needing to run two separate analyses to do so. i.e. a unified view of analyses!

    • Subgroups identified as statistically significant Top Drivers are highlighted with a blue indicator, where-as all other subgroups (with lower statistical significance, but some impact to the metric) are shown without this indicator.

    • This feature is presently in Beta. If you would like to give it a try, reach out to your Sisu Customer Success contact.

      Untitled2

  3. Global Search — We are introducing Global Search, a simple search bar that lets you search across projects, metrics, dashboards, and analysis from anywhere in the product. Just click on the “search” icon on the left navigation, or press “cmd/ctrl + k” to initiate, and navigate to what you are looking for in one search. To learn more, see the following video: https://www.loom.com/share/3cad750bf655404fbd24ea7e4db90d51

Enhancements

  1. Trend Detection
    • We now automatically default the time filter window to the available date range in your underlying dataset.
    • Any subgroups with a size (i.e., number of rows) greater than 80% are now included in the evaluation of trends. Previously we only looked at those below 80%. This change ensures that even large / obvious subgroups are present in your results for you to evaluate trends and anomalies.
    • For Sum/Count metrics, when clicking on “why did this trend change happen” we now set the data-range for the Key Driver (”Why”) Analyses to be of equal number of days on each side of the trend change date. This ensures that the resulting analyses has even days for each comparison period and is thus more accurate is helping you identify the drivers of the trend change. (Note this issue does not exist for Average/Rate type metrics)
  2. Product Experience enhancements
    • Introducing Right Click to Open: Project list, analysis list, and dashboard lists now have a standard right click so you can right click and open the analysis or project or in a new window or a tab, without leaving the original page you are on. Untitled
    • Introducing Bulk Delete: You can now delete multiple analysis together and keep your projects clean with the new “bulk delete” feature.
    • Improved Sorting: Project lists sort in the same default order across the app so that you can view the same list and order everywhere.
    • Improved error messages for various data types in the application to give you more context on errors.
    • We have centralized the “metric deletion” to the “metric library” only, so that you do not accidentally delete a metric by mistake from other pages.
    • 90% faster load times of all pages that have a list of tables, queries, or dimensions in them from your data-warehouse!
  3. Metric Units & Decimal Places
    • You can now set the units and decimal places for any Metric on the Metric setup page. The units show up on Key Driver Analyses, Trend Detection, and Dashboards, making it easier to consume and understand analyses results.
  4. Key Driver Analyses APIs
    • Analyses results now include “impact” for each subgroup in the API response for Key Driver Analyses. With this update, all statistics in the “Top Drivers” table are now included in the API response
  5. Updates to pysisu
    • Our python library, pysisu, has been updated. Now you can run analysis with the run() method, allowing customers to embed KDA executions directly within a data pipeline. Impact score has also been added to KDA results to complete the export of all fact table information
  6. Predictions [Beta, Invite only]
    • Improved predictions table formatting based on the type of metric the predictions are for.

    Better error reporting for SQL queries — Customers get the correct line number in which the error occurs when there is an error in the query.

  2. Trend Detection

    • When creating a Key Driver Analysis from Trend Detection Analysis, filters are preserved and applied to the new analyses
    • Dynamic filters and summary periods now populate for all trend detection analysis
  3. Dashboards

    Fixed dashboard tile resize handle icon (previously was not rendering)

· 2 min read
  1. [Beta] Trend Detection
    • We increased the speed of running time series stats by 45x.
    • We now support time period aggregations, by day, week, or month
    • Subgroup sizes are now shown on a per-trend basis rather than overall for Trend Detection.
    • Trend analyses now ignore leading zeros in the data
    • Sisu now gracefully handles datasets without data in the analysis period
    • Added custom time filter to replace history length
  2. Key Driver Analyses
    • When there are few facts on the Fact Table, we now automatically “ungroup” the facts so you can see them all. Without this, order 2 and 3 facts would be hidden.
    • Filter dropdown values are now sorted numerically or alphabetically and not by how prevalent they are.
  3. Dimension Management
    • Dimensions are now sorted alphabetically in both the key driver analysis and time comparison dimension modal, as well as the metric setup page.
    • You can now quickly filter dimensions by data type so you can easily see and find the dimensions that are strings, numbers, booleans or time-stamps.
  4. Boards & Embedding
    • Added “Share” link to copy the URL of a board
    • [Beta] You can now pin the time chart from the fact detail page to a board or embed it in Tableau
  5. Improving Analyses Run Speed
    • Key driver analysis → Unweighted categorical compares now runs faster for some datasets
    • Enabled native Snowflake unload to Azure
    • Fixed a bug in the ‘compare top driver’ algorithm which improves workflow times for large datasets
  6. Project Page
    • Updated analysis tags to show more explicit types: “General performance”, “Trend”, “Time compare”, “Exploration”
  7. Metrics Setup
    • Added “select all” and “deselect all” for dimension lists in metric setup
    • Made “duplicate metric” more discoverable in metric setup

· 3 min read
  1. [Beta] Trend Detection improvements
    • Time grain configurability: You can now examine trends aggregated by day (existing), week, or month
    • Control trend sensitivity: Some data sets have a lot of noise, and some don't. Now you're able to adjust how sensitive you want our trend detection algorithm to behave.
    • Subgroup size calculation: See the size of each subgroup during a trend and not just over the whole data set period. This should help you paint a better picture of just how impactful this subgroup was during a trend.
    • Zero filtering: Missing data for one day/week/month? Trend detection can now ignore “zeros” to more confidently and accurately determine actual trends and trend changes.
  2. [Beta] Row Sampling for Key Driver Analyses: You can now run key driver analyses on a sample of your data (e.g. 10% of rows randomly sampled). This improves analyses run time by 2-10x and allows you to quickly iterate on your dimension setup before running on full data.
  3. Dynamic time filters for General Performance and Group Comparisons: You can now dynamically filter on time ranges in all key driver analyses (i.e. not just time comparisons). This means you don't have to update their date selection as time progresses (e.g. "Last month"). This makes it easier to enable Auto-Run and starting Following such analyses
  4. Verified metrics: You can now toggle a metric as “verified”. With verified on, you know which metrics are the source of truth and worth using (among duplicates or various versions) in order to save time and trust analysis results.
  5. App Navigation:
    • In the project analyses list page, you now clearly see which type of key driver analysis was run (e.g., ”Time comparison”). This makes it easier to know what type of analyses you are navigating to.
