BI tool optimized to shorten the time from data lake to dashboard

About

Ultra-fast BI platform that uses its own embedded in-memory database to process queries in milliseconds and instantly turns large volumes of data in a data lake into dashboards
- Once the engineering team defines data lake data as SQL-based data models, Rill automatically turns them into interactive dashboards
Data can be pivoted, sliced, and drilled down for instant exploration, and data profiling and automatic aggregation enable intuitive data exploration
Applies the BI-as-code concept: dashboards defined in SQL and YAML, version control and collaboration through Git, automated deployment, with a developer-friendly CLI and IDE environment
- BI-as-code : an approach that manages analytics assets as code, bringing the advantages of software development such as version control, collaboration, and automation to BI
Based on Sveltekit & DuckDB; quickly loads local and remote Parquet/CSV files and profiles them in real time, automatically updating results on every keystroke without a query button
Consists of Rill Developer (local development/modeling) and Rill Cloud (team sharing/collaboration)
- Developers experiment freely locally
- Finished projects are deployed to the cloud and shared with team members
Strengths over existing BI tools include reduced complexity, lower cost, and real-time exploration
- Provides an analytics environment directly on the data lake, without building separate ETL, data warehouse, and BI tools
