Abstract
A data visualization platform architecture that enables building of a data visualization via a one-directional chain of separate stages is provided, wherein each stage has a simple input interface and output interface. The staging of the architecture enables the data visualization to be provisioned while using fewer system resources and for additional behaviors to be applied to the visualization. Such behaviors include: transforming data from an arbitrary format, modular updates to data visualizations, client-independent operation, reduced-cost updating and extension of the platform, reduced-cost animations, etc. Aspects of the data visualization platform streamline and optimize the performance of a computing device that provides a data visualization.
