Location3 Media Partners with Microsoft to Develop Silverlight Analytics Framework

April 16, 2010 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
DENVER, CO – Location3 Media has partnered with Microsoft to release its cloud-based Silverlytics platform for beta testing. Silverlytics, a combination of Silverlight and analytics, is a Microsoft Azure-based endpoint for the Microsoft Silverlight Analytics Framework (MSAF). This combination of technologies provides analytics capabilities to the latest web technologies, such as Microsoft Silverlight, which may not work with pixel- or javascript-based tracking tags commonly used in traditional HTML web applications.

"Analytics is integral to our marketing strategies, so we've been grappling with the ability to measure nontraditional web applications for some time," says Chris Wiederspan, VP of Technology at Location3 Media. "With the help of Microsoft's influence and resources, we were finally able to make it happen."

Location3 Media built Silverlytics to integrate business intelligence metrics straight into the platform. Silverlytics uses Microsoft Pivot, an experimental application from Microsoft Labs, to provide a low-friction way to visualize the analytics data in real-time. Silverlytics also exposes a traditional API that allows customers to integrate the analytics package into their own dashboards or applications.
