Best analytics/data visualization library for MongoDB

Question

In your opinion, what is the best library to crunch data AND build the web based reports in this context:

• Data: documents in MongoDB, less than 1M documents, time is a key dimension in the data
• Framework: Rails (but I'm opened to others)

There are tons of Javascript data visualization libraries, but ideally I'm looking for something that integrates "off-the-shelf" with MongoDB, and that uses modern technologies (HTML5) vs. old (Flash).

If I don't find anything MongoDB specific, I might go with either Google Chart or D3.js, which looks awesome but maybe too "young".

Answer 1

Since you already specified D3.js, i heartily recommend Cube Time series visualization tool kit that built on

• Mongodb
• D3
• Node
• websocket

Its still in early development. But looks very promising. And one of the cool feature is it packed with websocket, this will be a interesting choice for real time data visualization for web. Have a look
