) and growing its partner ecosystem (

). Yellowfin recently launched Yellowfin 9.4, which provides business users 
with unique ways to engage with and act on their data, and addresses the needs 
of data analysts and developers who want to build and deploy amazing analytical 
experiences. This ground-breaking release for enterprise and embedded analytics 
also powers significant enhancements to other industry-leading innovations, 
including Yellowfin Signals, an automated insights discovery product, and 
Yellowfin Stories, a data storytelling product.

"To be recognized as a Visionary once is great, but to achieve this two years 
in a row is exceptional in our opinion," said Glen Rabie, CEO of Yellowfin. "We 
are delighted with this recognition and believe it validates our status as a 
true innovator in the analytics space. Our Signals and Story products are 
unique and combined with the exceptional breadth of our analytic platform 
capabilities, enable Yellowfin to deliver beautifully simple solutions to our 
customers' complex data problems. To be named Visionary again this year, in our 
view, underscores our trajectory and the significant demand from enterprises 
and software companies looking to Yellowfin to modernize and transform their 
businesses."

As reported by Gartner, "The scope of augmentation is extending. Originally 
intended to assist analyst personas using self-service, augmentation and, 
increasingly, automation are now being applied to help end users directly, 
giving rise to a new user category: augmented consumers. These are nontechnical 
people who expect insights to find them, often in the form of machine-generated 
data stories driven by automated insights based on ongoing monitoring of data 
relevant to their role, persona or job function." [2]
