Explore Sunburst and Stacked Area Chart

This Workflow demonstrates the usage of the Sunburst Chart, which is used to visualize data when the data has some level of hierarchy. In this Workflow, the Sunburst Chart displays the Sales of the Company across Products and Markets.

Additionally, a Stacked Area Chart is used to display the Composition of Sales across Products during various dates.

If you want to give your acquired knowledge a test run, take a look at the Just KNIME It challenges. (Just KNIME It Link provided in External resources section of this workflow)
