What’s new in Spotfire® 14.7

Spotfire^® Analytics

Spotfire 14.7 delivers a more intuitive and dynamic analytic experience with enhanced visualizations, improved authoring workflows, and on-demand learning to help users work faster and discover insights more easily.

Notable enhancements:

All-data points in box plots - Display every underlying data point alongside statistical summaries, making patterns, outliers, and distributions visible at a glance.

Vertical line & combination charts - Support for vertically oriented charts to naturally display depth, height, or elevation - ideal for domains such as energy, geology, manufacturing, and life sciences.

Enhanced visualization authoring - The new visualization properties panel continues to evolve, offering improved map-chart image layers, refined time-series handling, and unified authoring across web and installed clients.

Configurable properties experience - Administrators and authors can choose whether the contextual properties panel or the classic dialog is used by default, while maintaining access to both interfaces.

New Databricks connector - Streamlined browsing across catalogs and schemas, secure modern authentication, and a future-ready architecture for upcoming Databricks-native capabilities.

Faster workflows - The Data in Analysis flyout now remembers its last-used mode, and the new Learn & Discover panel provides on-demand learning and feature discovery directly within the analysis.

Spotfire® Data Science

Spotfire 14.7 focuses on clarity, trust and extensibility, helping engineers, scientists, and analysts build purpose-built, industry-specific analytics applications with confidence.

Notable enhancements:

Legends & tooltips for reference elements - Reference lines, bands, boxes, and markers (benchmarks, thresholds, targets) now appear in the visualization legend and include interactive tooltips, making analytics applications self-explanatory and presentation-ready.

Diagnostics for built-in data functions - Spotfire now surfaces clear warnings and notifications for geometry issues, CRS (coordinate reference system) transformations, and time-series smoothing adjustments, reducing debugging time and increasing the trust in analytics results.

Multiple data views in Visualization Mods - The Visualization Mods framework now supports multiple independent data views per visualization. Developers can now build composite visuals and multi-table charts without pre-joins for more advanced domain-specific custom applications.

Spotfire® Enterprise

Spotfire 14.7 strengthens governance, security, and deployment simplicity, addressing the needs of enterprise-scale analytics and managed environments.

Notable enhancements:

Central mod re-signing for consistent trust - Administrators can centrally re-sign mods (whether in the library or as local .mod files), ensuring consistent signatures across deployments.

Web-based JDBC driver management - Deploy and update JDBC drivers directly from the web admin UI, reducing operational overhead and improving security by limiting server access.

Improved enterprise deployment workflows - Centralized mod signing and web-based driver management reduce IT effort, improve cross-environment consistency, and strengthen governance across analytics applications.
