Elegant, Precise, Insightful—Unlocking Data at Kingsoft Cloud

In many companies, operational analytics is both critical and painful.

Every month or quarter, sales needs reports, finance reconciles numbers, and leadership wants trends and comparisons—while data sits across databases, warehouses, and hundreds of reports.

A seemingly simple question—which product saw the largest consumption swing for this customer, and by how much?—can mean hopping systems and dozens of clicks.

AskTable is changing that workflow.

Kingsoft Cloud: from manual pulls to AI analytics

Kingsoft Cloud runs a complex internal stack. IT watches systems, data teams maintain reports, and frontline teams live in data daily.

Before AskTable, teams faced familiar issues:

• •Too many reports—slow updates and high maintenance.
• •Ad hoc requests flooding data teams.
• •Business users could not self-serve without SQL.
• •Long chains from question to answer.

After adoption, AskTable was integrated into internal IM so employees ask in natural language, for example:

• •“How much did customer X spend per product line this month?”
• •“Which procurement steps most often miss SLA?”
• •“Which sales unit has the best completion rate this year?”

AskTable generates the query, runs it, and returns tables, charts, and narrative in context.

Three scenarios

1. Business teams: self-serve their own questions

Sales and ops no longer need SQL or clunky BI portals—just ask, e.g.:

“What was total revenue for accounts I own last month—by product?”

Charts and summaries come back automatically. In one case a team spotted a revenue anomaly, drilled in, and traced a strategy issue—without waiting on engineering.

2. Data teams: from ticket queue to governance and insight

Business users now ask on their own:

• •“How was GPU product usage distributed last month?”
• •“How did revenue mix change by line this year?”

Low-frequency report demand dropped roughly 80%, freeing data teams for quality work and metric design.

3. Process teams: see bottlenecks clearly

Instead of manual SLA stats:

“Which processes exceeded SLA and where did they stall?”

AskTable returns timeout distributions and summarized causes so teams fix process, not spreadsheets.

Integration: lightweight and embeddable

Inside Kingsoft Cloud, AskTable connects to 20+ sources including MySQL and PostgreSQL, and embeds into internal systems, IM, or agent platforms without replacing the existing data architecture.

Outcomes

Everyone can ask data directly instead of only asking people.

Voice of the customer

At a recent insight session, Kingsoft Cloud’s data leadership shared:

“I’ve been waiting for analytics to have a ‘Siri moment’—no BI courses, no SQL, just ask and get an answer.
The first time I saw AskTable it felt elegant. The name captures the end state: everyone has tables—the question is whether you can ask them. ‘Your data, your questions’—that is real democratization.”

Delivery teams worked closely with Kingsoft Cloud to put productive AI in front of every team.

Co-creating what’s next: from chat to Canvas

The partnership goes beyond today’s wins. Together we are shaping AI Canvas—going past single Q&A to auto-assembled narratives, dashboards, and analytical stories driven by intent.

Kingsoft Cloud helps define that future: AI should not only answer—it should show the trend and the next generation of experience.
