Hi everyone :)
Firstly, I'm sorry if this isn't in the right section... It didn't seem to fit anywhere!
Basically, I'm part of a company that produces price indexes (basically graphs of manipulated data, for those that don't know). The Economist do something very similar to us, and I know that they use Drupal. What I'm wondering is, do they just use Drupal as a basic CMS, only for articles and themes? Or are they using a module that takes the data from their database, manipulates it and outputs the result? Or is that bit done by code hosted on their server?
I don't know if there's any way of knowing. All I have seen is a few articles on how they migrated to Drupal, how the upload their stories etc.
If anyone does know, that would be amazing! Or if anyone knows of any modules that do do that?
Thanks in advance!

You may have already seen this. You can also contact author.
In theory, they could use drupal to display price indices using modules like: charts, views, and so on.
Maybe post a link to a sample page, to see what is done.
