Mashup vs. Dashboard

Hi, I would like to start a big application that will take data from multiple datasources (SQL servers, APIs etc.) and I would say will be a complex one. 

 

The thing is, in the last couple of days i was trying to find some differences between dashboards (which look way better and are easier to configure) and mashups and i could not. Till now i've only worked with mashups and i found some documentation about dashboards but it did not answer my questions. (e.g. are they better for a bigger application? are they scalable and easy to deploy to more than 1 server?)

 

thanks! anything would be helpful as i know almost nothing :)

Start here:

Dashboards is a way to deliver user (runtime) configurable screens.

Users can start with a base screen, where the visuals are shown in Thingworx Gadgets.

These can be moved, removed or new ones can be added, depending on what you have in the Gadget library.

It's a bit more complex and you'll have a bit less flexibility.
