Pre-Built
Cloud Components
A new approach to rapidly develop & deploy custom analytics.
Pre-built components are designed to take you from
Hindsight to Insight to Foresight
Black Swan's Cloud Analytics has 6 pre-built components in the cloud ready for customization and rapidly assembly.
There are components to fulfill all your analytic needs: integrate data from various sources, apply necessary calculations and models, visualize your data and create reports, develop function specific web applications and even apply machine learning and AI for predictive analytics all on one platform.
Leave behind the days of tedious, manual analysis & expensive, bloated, one-size must fit all vendor software.

Data Source Integration
Identify the Data to Power your Analytic Solution
Financial organizations juggle a wide variety of data types from various sources such as:
market data, transactional data, pricing data, deal data, trustee reports, news and more.
We have the experience and expertise to set-up automated data capturing strategies that accurately extract, transform and load data from just about any source into either a local or cloud-based data warehouse.
Data Capturing Strategies
Some ways we extract data from various sources include:
APIs
Database Extraction
Flat File Extraction
Web Scraping
Sample Data Sources

Data Aggregation & Harmonization
Create Multi-purpose Data Warehouse
We cross-validate data to create a single source-of-truth data warehouse and document all data fields. The data warehouse is the basis of our web-based Cygnet Solutions and can also power other reporting solutions and analysis to meet the needs of your organization.
3
Calculations & Models
Implement Custom Business Logic & Apply Advanced Models
With all data from various sources now in a centralized data warehouse we can implement your custom business logic, run different scenarios including Monte Carlo simulations and apply advanced models and calculations. Our unique platform can incorporate your own models or we can rapidly develop custom models to meet your needs. Calculations can be applied at the security, portfolio or manager level and are scheduled to run overnight or based on any custom time-frame.
Our solution supports three of the most popular and powerful programming languages: .NET, Python and R. The combination covers many Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning libraries and facilitates advanced model development from quantitative analysts.
4
Data Visualization & Reports
Embedded Modern BI
Combining transformed data and analytics from all your different sources can reveal unprecedented insights. Interactive visualizations and reports auto refresh as new data comes in so you always have the latest information. Our quantitative analysts can quickly develop complex reporting dashboards using BI tools such as Tableau, Power BI or QlikView and embed it natively into the solution.
Sample Visualizations

Web Application
All-In-One Place, Accessible from Any Device 24/7
A custom web application will automate your business logic into a fully interactive, dynamic solution that incorporates all your data, calculations, scenarios, models, visualizations and reports on a single platform.
Traditional desktop software has generic bloated features and requires complex IT installation and support. Our powerful web-based solution is custom designed around your unique workflow and to achieve the specific goals of your organization.
