File (.html) Visualization Type Of

zoomable-treemap Rectangular treemap; select; zoom All databases, * zoomable-sunburst "sunburst" arrangement; select; zoom All databases, *, ** dndTree Clickable/dragable tree; click+/- All databases, * bubble bubble area chart All databases, *

radial-tree Radial Tree arrangement All databases cluster-dendrogram Tree with leaves "aligned" All databases

tax-indented-tree "Clickable indented tree"; click+/- All categories

Key:

select Allows user to "select" a criteria (eg: size or count) to visualize on; implemented as a mutually exclusive selection criteria click +/- Allows user to click an object (usually to expand/collapse detail underneath that object) zoom Allows user to "zoom" in on a point of reference by clicking it (and zoom back out by clicking elsewhere).

All database A full list of all database offering (relational and non-relational) including more obscure offerings and offering types (no filtering).

All categories A list of all the categories, including the non-database categories, not all the entries.

•           These visualizaitons should support some sort of "cutoff" criteria,
            to allow user to filter.
  

** This visualization currently has no labels; need to implement labels or some sort of mouse-over/hover to allow user to indentify details.

NOTE: this will ONLY work with Firefox and Safari, there is a "cross platform security" issue with Google Chrome (at least on OS-X, it may work on Linux).
