Query S3 with SQL and build dashboards

Hacker News

I'm Mike, founder at Definite ( https://www.definite.app/ ). We have a ton data sitting in S3 / GCP. Most BI / dashboard tools need you to pipe that data into a SQL database / data warehouse, but it's expensive and a pain to set up. We seen this enough times that we've built a way to directly query S3 and build dashboards without moving the data. Under the hood, our product[0] uses DuckDB as a data warehouse. DuckDB has some amazing features that made it pretty simple on our end. 4 minute demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrrCQnfKEig Here's how it works: 1. Add an S3 / GCP key and secret 2. Write SQL to access the data you care about (e.g. CSVs, parquet, JSON, JSONL, etc.) 3. Build a model on top of that data (we automatically create a basic model which you can tweak) 4. Share that model with non-technical business users (if they can use a pivot table, they'll be able to use Definite) 5. Ask our AI ("Fi") questions about the data. Fi can build reports and dashboards on top of S3.
