Description: Data connection refers to the link established between a data visualization tool and a data source, allowing the visualization tool to access and utilize information from various databases, files, or cloud services. This connection is fundamental for creating interactive dashboards and reports, as it enables users to transform data into meaningful visualizations. Data visualization tools support multiple types of connections, including live connections, where data is updated in real-time, and extracted connections, where data is imported for analysis. The ability to connect different data sources, such as SQL databases, Excel spreadsheets, or web services, expands analysis possibilities and facilitates informed decision-making. Additionally, an intuitive interface allows users to establish these connections without the need for advanced technical knowledge, democratizing access to data analytics. In a world where information is increasingly abundant, data connection becomes an essential tool for organizations looking to maximize their information and gain valuable insights.
