Would you start a new product when the category is pretty crowded already What if you start a new product where the category is pretty crowded already?
And most of the people that you talk to tell you: maybe not a good idea.
But Oliver and Hamzah decided to do it. A new BI tool based on modern data principles and tools.
It’s built on top of the metadata that you already have when you use dbt. In the same place where you describe your model with descriptions and columns, you can use Lightdash to define your metrics and dimensions and how these different kinds of data tables relate to each other.
This is the metric or semantic layer everyone is talking about. An abstraction layer between your tables in your data warehouse and the place the business users are working with it.
So marketing, product, or sales. They basically get a prepared version of the data just for them. With metrics and dimensions for them to work with. And so they don't have to think about how do I get the revenue and where do I get the country information so I can drill it down by country.
