Cube, dbt and Grafana: the OSS stack that blends Data Analytics with Observability data
<p>Observability data isn’t typically blended with the data that your Analysts are working with. These data types are typically stored in entirely separate databases, and interrogated through different tools.</p>
<p>But that needn’t be the case. At Grafana Labs we’ve started blending this data together, to answer questions that we or our customers have, such as:
- How much revenue did that downtime cost me?
- How did latency impact on sales last Black Friday?
- Which customers were impacted by that incident, and which ones are the highest priority to follow up with?</p>
<p>The FOSS projects we’re combining to get there are:
- The LGTM stack (github.com/grafana) for Observability
- Cube core (cube.dev/docs/product/getting-started/core) for Semantic Layer
- dbt core (github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-core) for transforming SQL data
- Grafana itself to blend, visualise and even alert on the end-result</p>
<p>During this talk I’ll describe how you too can fit these pieces together and use them to answer similar questions for your own context.</p>
