Using Questionmark, assessments can be delivered for participants. The answers these participants provide are rolled together into results, representing the scores the participants received on their assessments. These answer and result data are stored in a transactional database optimized for fast data storage, but due to this optimization, reporting from this transactional database is slower and cumbersome. Therefore, the Questionmark Results Warehouse has been developed. This is a database optimized for reading and reporting data, and it can access large amounts of data much more quickly than the transactional database.
Analytics is a module within Questionmark that uses the Results Warehouse to display data in various reports. Because these reports exist within Analytics, the end user cannot modify them beyond setting various filters for the data. To enable end users to access the results and answers stored in the Results Warehouse, Questionmark has added OData feeds to Analytics.
