Understanding the Data Structure

Cybersyn Data Products are built around two concepts: entities and timeseries.

  • Entities are concrete things or objects (a geography, a company, a mortgage application).
  • Timeseries are abstract measures (ie. statistics) related to an entity and a date.

Key Metrics & Definitions

The timeseries tables are central to the data product. Below are key ways to break down and interpret the data:

  • Consumer Location: The geographic region where the consumer is from.
  • Merchant Location: The location of the merchant where the transaction occurred.
  • Channel: The medium used for the transaction (e.g., online, offline).
  • Age Demographic: Specific age bracket of the consumer.
  • Income Demographic: Specific income bracket of the consumer.
  • Metric/Measure: The financial or quantitative measure being tracked (e.g., sales, transactions).
  • Frequency of the Measure: How often the measure is calculated (e.g., weekly, monthly).

Year-over-year Defintitions:

  • Sales/Revenue YoY: Year-over-year change in total sales value (USD) for a given period.
  • Transactions YoY: Year-over-year change in the number of sales transactions. Each purchase counts as a transaction.
  • AOV YoY (Average Order Value): Year-over-year change in average order value (USD). Calculated as Sales / Transactions. AOV refers to the typical amount spent in a single purchase.
  • Customers YoY: Year-over-year change in the total number of customers for a given period.
