- Enhanced User Experience: With Spotfire Mods, the user interface becomes more intuitive and user-friendly. Custom visuals and controls improve the overall experience, making it easier for users to interact with and understand complex data sets.

This capability is crucial for industries such as finance, healthcare, and engineering, where complex data patterns require intricate visual representations for better comprehension.

- Stay Ahead with Rapid Development: The modular nature of Spotfire Mods allows for rapid development and deployment of new features. This agility is crucial in staying ahead of the competition and adapting quickly to changing business requirements. Often a feature is a simple addition to an existing Spotfire Mods which is doable since all source code is provided for the Mods that Spotfire. For example, Cadeon recently added an additional feature to an existing Spotfire Mod for a client that required only a few hours of development, testing and implementation effort.
- Community-driven Innovation: Spotfire has a vibrant community of developers who actively contribute to the creation of Mods. This community-driven approach ensures that the platform is continuously evolving, with a growing repository of Mods that cater to a wide range of industry needs.

Automated Version Pruning in Spotfire: How We Solved Database Bloat
Over time, Spotfire environments tend to collect thousands of dashboard versions. Each time a developer saves or publishes a change, a new version is stored in the Spotfire Library. While this behavior helps preserve change history, it also leads to an uncontrolled build-up of redundant versions.For this client, years of development had caused the library to expand beyond manageable levels. The database was growing rapidly, backups took longer, and performance started to degrade. Searching or deploying dashboards became slower, and IT teams struggled to keep up with maintenance. The excess data also translated directly into higher storage and operational costs.In short, what started as a useful feature, version tracking, had turned into a serious infrastructure challenge.
