A computer-implemented method for generating embedded analytical information using at least one processor, the method comprising: obtaining a plurality of application data from an in-memory, column-oriented, relational database, the application data being associated with a role of a user and a plurality of applications; generating and displaying a user interface, the user interface being based on the role of the user and including at least one tabular graphic and at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734), the at least one tabular graphic representing a portion of the application data and the at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734) representing the portion, the at least one tabular graphic and at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734) being interactive and selectable by a user, wherein the at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734) includes a plurality of selectable filter locations which are arranged as selectable portions within the chart graphic (730, 732, 734); in response to receiving, from the user, a selection on a first filter location within the chart graphic (730, 732, 734), filtering the tabular graphic to display application data obtained from the in-memory, column-oriented, relational database and corresponding to the first filter location, the filtering removing data from the tabular graphic that does not correspond to the first filter location and automatically modifying the chart graphic (730, 732, 734) to immediately display a portion of the chart representing application data obtained from the in-memory, column-oriented, relational database and corresponding to the selection on the first filter location; wherein receiving a selection on a second filter location executes a filtering of the application data to automatically update the user interface, the automatic update including generating additional interactive chart graphics (730, 732, 734), each representing different aspects of the portion of the application data; and wherein selecting one of the additional interactive chart graphics (730, 732, 734) generates an automatic update to each of the at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734), the at least one tabular graphic, and the additional interactive chart graphics (730, 732, 734). obtaining a plurality of application data from an in-memory, column-oriented, relational database, the application data being associated with a role of a user and a plurality of applications; generating and displaying a user interface, the user interface being based on the role of the user and including at least one tabular graphic and at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734), the at least one tabular graphic representing a portion of the application data and the at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734) representing the portion, the at least one tabular graphic and at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734) being interactive and selectable by a user, wherein the at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734) includes a plurality of selectable filter locations which are arranged as selectable portions within the chart graphic (730, 732, 734); in response to receiving, from the user, a selection on a first filter location within the chart graphic (730, 732, 734), filtering the tabular graphic to display application data obtained from the in-memory, column-oriented, relational database and corresponding to the first filter location, the filtering removing data from the tabular graphic that does not correspond to the first filter location and automatically modifying the chart graphic (730, 732, 734) to immediately display a portion of the chart representing application data obtained from the in-memory, column-oriented, relational database and corresponding to the selection on the first filter location; wherein receiving a selection on a second filter location executes a filtering of the application data to automatically update the user interface, the automatic update including generating additional interactive chart graphics (730, 732, 734), each representing different aspects of the portion of the application data; and wherein selecting one of the additional interactive chart graphics (730, 732, 734) generates an automatic update to each of the at least one chart graphic (730, 732, 734), the at least one tabular graphic, and the additional interactive chart graphics (730, 732, 734).
