What is our primary use case?

The health data warehouse is a centralized repository for data that allows organizations to store, integrate, recall, and analyze information. Healthcare organizations may wish to use their warehouses perform clinical analytics using patient data stored in the EHR, or they may try to improve their financial forecasting by diving into business intelligence and revenue cycle analytics using claims and billing codes.

I tested this product and it really does not work. Cockpit does not update the results, if you create a dashboard the result that is shown the first time, will stay for ever. Really do not know how users can say that this product is great. It looks fine, but really does not work
