Simlytiks Standalone Application¶
In this section, we’ll review some of the Simlytiks Standalone Application (new as of April 6, 2022). Standalone is multi-source, allowing you to put all your data into one container to visualize, analyze, study and explore. Instead of mining data based on a specific dataset, you can import any and all data sources and review them all together.
