Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for obtaining histogram data from a database utilizing an interface with histogram-related options. One method includes an operation for providing, by a server, an application programming interface (API), to access the database, which includes a histogram request, to obtain histogram data from the database, with histogram options. The server receives, from a client device, a first histogram request including histogram options. Additionally, the method includes an operation for identifying bins for the histogram based on the one or more histogram options. For each bin, the server accesses the database to obtain data for each bin. The server returns, to the client device, the histogram data for the histogram as a table containing bin values for all the bins, where the client device is configured to present the histogram to a user based on the histogram data.
