Amazon QuickSight now supports localization, percentile calculations and more

Posted on: Apr 10, 2019

Amazon QuickSight is now localized in 10 major languages! With support for these languages across the entire product, Amazon QuickSight now makes it easier than ever for everyone to get deeper insights from their data. Languages supported are English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.   

Additionally, QuickSight now supports percentile calculations that enable you to generate 50th, 90th, 95th or nth percentile of any metric to easily visualize distribution of your data. You can also now format your visuals to display a custom number of data points or groups before showing the "other" category. This feature is available for bar charts, combo charts, line charts, pie charts, heat maps, and tree maps.

These updates are now available in both Standard and Enterprise Editions in all QuickSight regions - US East (N. Virginia and Ohio), US West (Oregon), EU (Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Singapore, Sydney and Tokyo).
