No. Flexmonster does not require Internet access to work properly.
The only requirement is that Flexmonster needs to have access to the data source you specify. The data source can be remote or in the local network. Other operations, including the license key validation, are handled without access to the Internet.
New minor versions are released biweekly. Follow our release notes to learn about the latest updates.
Note We recommend updating Flexmonster regularly to get bug fixes and access new features. See how to update Flexmonster to the latest version.
No. Flexmonster does not send any data to external servers. Most operations, including the license key validation, are performed on the client's machine.
Depending on a data source, Flexmonster can make requests to fetch the data from the specified location, for example, from your own endpoint. All such requests can be observed in the "Network" tab of the browser's developer console.
We offer a special server-side tool - Flexmonster Accelerator for OLAP cubes. It adds additional security to your data and allows you to restrict any external access. You can read all the details about security concepts in our documentation.
We offer a special server-side tool - Flexmonster Data Server. It allows managing security and establishing authorized access to the data. Follow our detailed guide on configuring security and authorization in the Data Server.
Direct connection from the browser to the database is not secure, so it is not supported in Flexmonster.
To address this, we suggest using Flexmonster Data Server. This server-side tool allows you to manage the data access and security the way you want.
The Data Server supports MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Azure SQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle databases. We have a detailed tutorial for each database.
Flexmonster supports connection to OLAP cubes via the XMLA protocol. However, XMLA is difficult to configure and often works slowly. To increase data loading speeds, our team created Flexmonster Accelerator.
This server-side utility ensures security and allows you to restrict any external access to the data. Learn more about configuring the authentication process in Flexmonster Accelerator.
