What is self-service analytics?
Turns plain-language questions into SQL and builds live dashboards over your own databases. Ask in Azerbaijani, Russian or English.
What is self-service analytics?
Self-service analytics is the practice of empowering business users to query, explore, and visualize data entirely on their own — without writing a single line of code or submitting a request to an already-stretched data team. Instead of waiting days for a report to come back from engineering, anyone across the organization can pose a plain-language question and receive an answer grounded in live, up-to-date data. This shift removes the traditional bottleneck between the people who hold business questions and the specialists who know how to retrieve data, compressing decision cycles from days to seconds and putting analytical capability directly in the hands of the people who need it most.
Why self-service analytics matters for your business
Faster decisions: business users receive answers in seconds rather than waiting days for engineering resources to free up and produce a report.
Zero technical barrier: questions are asked in plain, everyday language — Azerbaijani, Russian, or English — so no SQL knowledge or data training is required to get started.
Complete data ownership: the solution is self-hosted on your own Docker infrastructure, meaning your databases and the data inside them never leave your environment or touch an external service.
Built-in auditability: every answer is accompanied by the exact SQL query that was executed to produce it, giving analysts, managers, and auditors a clear, reproducible record of how each result was derived.
Safe by design: the tool operates under a read-only, least-privilege database role restricted exclusively to SELECT statements, making it technically impossible for the system to modify, insert, or delete any records.
Multilingual accessibility: full support for Azerbaijani, Russian, and English means diverse regional teams can work in their preferred language without switching tools or losing any functionality.

How self-service analytics works with Allmaz
Frequently asked questions about self-service analytics
Do I need to know SQL or have a technical background to use this?
No technical background is required. The tool is designed specifically for business users who think in plain language rather than database syntax. You type your question as you would ask a colleague, and the system generates the correct SQL automatically behind the scenes. Your data team may be involved in the initial setup, but day-to-day use requires no coding knowledge whatsoever.
Will my data be sent to an external server or third-party service?
No. The solution is entirely self-hosted and runs on your own Docker infrastructure. Your databases remain inside your own environment at all times, and no data is transmitted to any external service. This makes the tool suitable for organizations with strict data-residency or compliance requirements.
Can the tool accidentally change, delete, or corrupt my data?
No. The system connects to your database through a read-only, least-privilege role that is restricted exclusively to SELECT queries. It is technically incapable of executing INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, or any other data-modification statement, so there is no risk of accidental changes to your records regardless of how a question is phrased.
How can I verify that the answers the tool returns are accurate?
Every answer includes the exact SQL query that was executed to produce it. You, your data team, or an auditor can copy that query, run it independently against your database, and confirm that the result matches. This full transparency means you are never asked to trust a number without being able to trace precisely where it came from.
Which languages are supported, and can different team members use different languages?
The tool fully supports Azerbaijani, Russian, and English. Different team members can each work in whichever language is most natural to them — there is no need to standardize on a single language across the organization. All three languages are supported for both asking questions and receiving answers, with no reduction in functionality between them.
