1. A method of creating and editing of a dashboard using a computer system, comprising:
- transforming data extracted from a data repository to generate read-only pre-packaged data sets for querying;
storing the read-only pre-packaged data sets in a general-purpose distributed memory caching system associated with the computer system;
receiving, in a dashboard editing mode, a selection of a second panel to add to the dashboard, wherein;
the second panel provides a visual representation of data, from the data repository, in a graph;
the dashboard includes (i) faceted first panels including filtering controls and (ii) selection controls;
the faceted first panels provide a visual representation of data, from the data repository, in a chart, such that each faceted first panel, of the faceted first panels, (i) presents one or more segments of a category from data in the data repository and (ii) associates at least one of the one or more segments with a filtering control that can be linked to a facet property; and
an activated facet property of a faceted first panel, of the faceted first panels, causes one or more other faceted first panels to share and be responsive to signals from both (i) the filtering control included in the faceted first panel and (ii) the selection controls;
activating a facet property of the second panel to link a selection of data visually displayed in the second panel to the signals from both (i) the filtering control included in the faceted first panel and (ii) the selection controls;
identifying a user selection of the filtering control included in the faceted first panel;
executing a query on the read-only pre-packaged data sets stored in the general-purpose distributed memory caching system based at least in part on the user selection; and
populating the second panel using results of the executed query without requiring a user to exit the dashboard editing mode,wherein the selection controls, the filtering control included in the faceted first panel and a filtering control displayed by the one or more other faceted first panels are simultaneously presented for interaction by user selection, andwherein the filtering control included in the faceted first panel applies a filter to adjust (i) the filtering control of the one or more other faceted first panels to provide interactive visual representations of the one or more segments displayed by at least one chart of the one or more other faceted first panels, and (ii) a visual representation of the graph displayed by the second panel.
