System Overview
Data analysts interact with the Cubed web service to define the data marts. If a Bullet service is configured, she can test run the data mart against real-time streaming data. If building a funnel mart, she can test run funnel queries against Hive. The test run results can help the analyst fine-tune her marts before deploying them. Once the analyst decides to launch the mart, Cubed generates and packages all the files and configurations, and deploys the ETL pipeline to Oozie.
The deployed pipeline runs composed queries against Hive regularly, and loads the results to Druid. The analyst can plug BI tools into Druid and run high-performance analytics and reporting based on the results Cubed produced.
