The world of data

Hi Community,We just published an ebook on AI and data context. It explains why AI agents need to know how data is actually used, and how a data product marketplace can give them that information. Here are the main points. Key takeawaysAgents lack the knowledge experienced colleagues have. A finance analyst knows a legacy system runs two days behind the data warehouse. An HR director knows a survey with a 90% response rate is more reliable than one with 10%. An agent acts on the data without this knowledge, and small misreadings add up quickly when it works autonomously. A semantic layer standardizes definitions. Interpreting a metric correctly also depends on who asks, which system produced it, how fresh the data is, and which policies apply. That extra information is what the ebook calls context. Context covers many dimensions: time, location, relationships to other data, quality, purpose, permissions, business definitions, and provenance. Context changes all the time. A customer lea

Hi everyone 👋Huwise has published an ebook on digital sovereignty for Chief Data Officers and Chief Information Officers. Here is what it covers.Digital sovereignty now goes beyond compliance. The ebook names three sources of business risk : political decisions or conflicts can cut access to IT systems, AI models or data centers overnight. Vendor lock-in often sits in the application layer, so an organization can host its data on a sovereign cloud and still depend on a single vendor to access, govern or share it. AI adds a third risk, because token prices, model availability and vendor strategy are outside the organization’s control.The ebook compares data and AI sovereignty rules in the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union and the Middle East, from least to most restrictive.It then sets out a five-step process for CDOs and CIOs:Educate the board and list the laws that apply to you. Establish and prioritize risks with Gartner’s TPESTRE framework. Im

Forrester Consulting recently conducted a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study on Huwise, analyzing how a data product marketplace drives measurable business value across enterprise organizations.Here are the key takeaways from the study.💡 The core impactBased on a composite 10,000-employee enterprise, the study revealed: 📈 487% ROI over 3 years (for every $1 invested, companies received $4.74 back). ⏱️ < 6 Months Payback Period to recover initial investment costs. 💰 $6.5M Net Present Value (NPV) in net benefits over 3 years ($7.8M total benefits vs. $1.3M investment). 🚀 Where the value comes from1️⃣ Business teams ($4.5M in value) 50% reduction in time spent searching for data. Business users get self-service access to trusted, ready-to-use data products—meaning more time spent analyzing and making decisions, not digging for metrics. 2️⃣ Data experts & analysts ($3M in value) 50% reduction in data prep time. Saves 3 days per month, per data expert, allowing teams to f

We are at a monumental turning point. As generative and agentic AI flood the market, organizations face a critical choice: allow technology to cause information chaos, or harness it intentionally to amplify collective intelligence.The freshly co-created Data Voices 2026 Manifesto gathers insights from nearly 100 Data & AI leaders across international industries to establish a definitive roadmap for the next four years.Here is a look at the 6 strategic predictions that will define the AI-first enterprise by 2030, along with the immediate actions you need to take today. 📋 The 6 strategic predictions for 2030 # Prediction The core insight 1 Data Leaders as Business Strategists The CDO/CTO will evolve from a technical executioner into the CEO’s core strategic partner, balancing technical foundation with real ROI. 2 Effortless Data Democratization Data-driven culture will become organizational DNA.

I’ve been investigating options for accessing the data on our portal using AI assistants, mainly Claude code. I previously posted my experience of a REST to MCP adapter, which works, but is a bit clunky and not very token efficient. I have recently experimented with a new library called mcp2cli which enables the coding agent to use CLI commands to query data on our portal.MCP2CLI can create a skill which introspects the swagger.json  - which is published under the portal’s API tab, to understand the explore API of the portal. This enables the coding agent to discover datasets, understand their structure and create SQL queries to return filtered and aggregated data. The skill is an alternative approach to MCP servers that is more token efficient due to progressive disclosure and the use of a command line interface to query the data. I iterated over creation of the skill several times to improve it.My limited testing of the skill I created indicates that it is quite accurate and token -

Hi allI’ve been using Claude Code quite a lot for developing software and doing analysis. It’s an agentic AI coding assistant in the CLI if you haven’t come across it. Anthropic (the parent company) developed a protocol called MCP to help the AI use external resources like APIs.Someone has developed a tool to take openapi or swagger API specifications and turn it into MCP tools. What this means is that you can ask Claude Code, in natural language, questions about your data, and it will translate this, quite well into code to send a request to the API and return data. HuWise have done something similar on the portal in their “Explore data with AI” feature, but this is a bit more powerful for deeper analysis - but requires some setup and a Claude account and Claude Code.I simply cloned the repo and asked Claude to create MCP tools from the swagger json for my portal, and it did the rest.Here is my cloned repo, with the ods_server.py script providing the mcp tools for my portal.

Hello, I can see that the region ID - Name used for Japan in OpenDataSoft follows the FIPS standard. I also see in different sources that FIPS is no more used since 2008. Do we know why OpenDataSoft is still using this norm ? is there a way they could update to use one of the used norms in the whole world now ( JIS X 0401 or ISO )

Are there plans to add more mapping capability for Studio Maps - for example clusters, dots and shapes and heat maps - same functionality that is shown in Map Builder? 

Hello dear community,I’m having an issue with sorting in the filter. I created a dropdown filter with the names of care homes. The problem is that the alphabetical order doesn’t prioritize uppercase and lowercase letters correctly. I have care homes named "dandelion" and "irides" which are lowercase and appear at the very end of the filter. Is there a way to work around this?                <div class="shared-width-ods-selects">                    <div ods-facet-results="reglist"                         ods-facet-results-facet-name="name"                         ods-facet-results-context="myctx0"                         ods-facet-results-sort="alphanum">                        <ods-select ng-init="myctx0.parameters['refine.name'] = []"                                    options="reglist"                                    selected-values="myctx0.parameters['refine.name']"                                    multiple="false"                                    label-modifie

Is it possible to remove the label indicating the cluster count ? - or at least the option to style it  - so the label has the same colour as the icon behind it?

Dear Support Team,I am currently trying to display data in a chart, and I have encountered an issue. The chart is displaying the years along the X-axis, but some years are not being shown, likely due to space constraints.Is there a way to force the diagram to display the missing years, such as 2017, 2019, and so on?Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your guidance on how to resolve this issue.Best regards,Boris

I’ve been trying to use the Geofilter.polygon to refine the results in a dataset per this documentation:https://userguide.opendatasoft.com/en/articles/2257346#:~:text=geofilter.polygon,%2C2.386968)However it always looks like it does a text search in the records.  Is there a setting I need to activate at the dataset level to accept geofilter options?

Hi we are trying to truncate the first 5 characters of a field and for some reason the Replace via Regular Expression processor doesn’t seem to ‘work”We have tried:^(.{1,5})(?:|$)Regex101.com seems to match it correctly and which replaces the first 5 characters with blank so then we tried this^.{5}(.*)which seems to replace all of it with a blank…  Help please.  If anyone can create a small library of useful regex strings for use that would be really appreciated!
