Q: What sort of advanced statistical analysis is supported by scenarios? E.g. P value multivariate regression, time series decomposition analysis?
A: Scenarios can handle some statistical analysis like P values and T statistics that provide summaries of datasets and visuals. The basketball insights demo (available in Q corner) demonstrates more statistical analysis capabilities. The feature is continuously evolving since its general availability launch last month. For specific analyses like time series decomposition, it’s recommended to try them out in the scenarios environment.
Q: Is there a recommendation to improve scenario performance for large CSV files?
A: The demo used a million-row file generated by AI. For larger files, performance depends on the environment and file sizes. Having clean data and clear field names tends to lead to more successful scenarios. One participant noted successful use with 6 million rows.
Q: Can scenarios handle append operations like combining two or more files?
A: Yes, scenarios can combine multiple files during analysis. This requires similar field names to create connections between datasets. You can add different files during your scenario to provide more context for analysis.
Q: Does scenarios require pro license? Is it available for authors or readers?
A: Yes, scenarios is part of Amazon Q in QuickSight and requires a Pro license. It requires an enablement fee and you can select how many people to enable with either Author Pro or Reader Pro access. Amazon Q and QuickSight need to be enabled.
Q: Regarding partner QBRs, can past documents be uploaded to get performance insights and talking points?
A: Scenarios only handles structured data. For unstructured data like document text in paragraph format, the data storytelling feature of QuickSight would be more appropriate as it can handle both structured and unstructured insights.
