I know Microsoft has released web controls that replicate some of the functionality found in Management Studio for data mining (decision tree, cluster characteristics / descrimination). I cannot seem to find one for the Cluster Diagram or Cluster Profiler. Does anyone know if this is currently avaliable anywhere I have determined the calls these built-in viewers are using, but before trying to build something from scratch I wanted to see if anyone has had experience doing this or if there is something already built for it.


Re: Web Control for Cluster Profiler/Diagram?

If you do not need to dynamically update your web page (and only need a static HTML version of the cluster profiles/cluster diagram) you could try to use the Data mining add-ins for Office 2007 (link available at http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/DMCommunity/)

You could render the cluster diagram using the add-in for Visio, then publish the diagram as a web page. An example is available here: (http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/CustomerClusters/)

Also, you could launch the Cluster Viewer in the Excel add-in, load the Cluster Profiles view, copy and paste it in Excel, then save the Excel spreadsheet as a web page

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately we are looking for a dynamic solution to display via the web without the need for our clients to have any sort of viewer or application installed.

The suggestions that Bogdan provides require no application or viewer for the web user. The applications/process he mentions describes the method for creating the web views. The end user will have a completely thin client experience.
