> we got bought by a small PE Fund that is rolling the product into Xplenty I'm interested to hear more about your experience building data warehouse related products, and perhaps learnings you've had along the way. I guess selling to PE wasn't the initial goal, but I'd imagine your product is very well suited to the Redshift space. I've been working on Snowflake related products, and their adoption speaks to a world…

there are always things the warehouses can't build themselves. For example, with intermix.io, it was the tracing we had built for other tools like Looker and dbt. The insight was that the result of a DAG involves many different calculations across different tables. The metadata only tells you that the steps happened, but doesn't tell you in what sequence they happened, where the "hiccup", latency, etc. Redshift is cl…

Cheers, appreciate it, will ping you on LI!

Like AWS did with its Open Data thing that comes up for that keyword. The telescope is older than the web and is what every single person on the planet with some access to space-related media thinks of when they think of Hubble. Think long tai…

As the person you may be referring to, I'd like to clarify that I was not in any way suggesting they target "hubble data." It was just an example of how a user might modify their search if they were looking for this company but found telescope content instead. There's no sense in doing SEO for your company name, unless you're at the point where competitors are trying to outrank you for your own company name. (Which i…

Nope. I was referring to the person I replied to who believed that it would rank for this keyword in a few weeks.

Do you have/think you need an on-prem version?

Yes we can run the whole stack on-prem. We realised very early that on-prem would be needed for many users. So we've made it easy to spin up Hubble in a k8s cluster in your cloud or on bare metal.
