Abstract

Techniques and mechanisms are disclosed for generating and causing display of graphical interfaces which enable an interactive and flexible search results visualization process. Based on results data identified in response to execution of a search query, an interface element is displayed which enables users to select a field contained in the results data, also referred to herein as a “dimension” or “facet,” and for which a “faceted” visualization of the results data can be dynamically generated and displayed. As used herein, a faceted visualization refers to a graphical interface including display of at least two separate data visualizations generated based on a selected facet data dimension, where each separate data visualization corresponds to a distinct value of the selected facet dimension.
