      A surprising amount of work at Stripe involves sharing results from ad-hoc SQL queries. (Not just on eng teams, either). How common is this?

      this is what drove us to @LookerData - expensive, but makes that scalable and productive

      impression is that @LookerData is tuned more towards long-lived dashboards, and maybe lightweight exploration, vs adhoc queries?

          no, I actually think the ad hoc queries are its strength once you invest in the data modeling

          to be precise, at that point you're not actually writing SQL, right? But letting Looker generate it.

          yes exactly. It's very good at that - basically allows me to responsibly remain a SQL amateur. Awesome for lean teams.

          My experience of various companies is that sharing ad hoc SQL adds a lot of value. Lots of questions are counting...

          we rolled our own adhoc query server (w/some basic result caching and link shortening) for this very purpose.

          ditto, this was "Superbit" at Etsy, a significant % of the company used it.

          dashboards are mostly an afterthought for us in comparison
