Introduction

The Pentaho Community Edition, by default, comes with plugins for developing solutions (dashboards, reports, and so on) without end user plugins. However, it's possible to find some plugins for the target audience in the Pentaho marketplace.

Pentaho EE offers some end user plugins such as Pentaho Analyzer and Pentaho Dashboard Designer. With these two plugins, users are able to easily create visualizations from different data sources using a web interface. In this chapter, you will learn how to explore and create visualizations of your MongoDB data using Pentaho Analyzer, and how to create dashboards using Pentaho Dashboard Designer.
