Vast Edge utilizes Google Cloud Platform (GCP) in conjunction with Looker. Looker is a business intelligence and data analytics platform, and it can be integrated with GCP to provide detailed insights, visualizations, and data analysis capabilities. This integration allows Vast Edge to leverage the power of GCP's cloud infrastructure and data services while using Looker to visualize and analyze the data effectively. It offers a robust solution for businesses looking to gain valuable insights from their data hosted on GCP.

GCP Looker Key Features

  • 1
    Data Integration:
    Looker can connect to various data sources, including GCP services such as Big Query, Cloud SQL, and Google Sheets. It can also integrate with on-premises databases and other cloud platforms. This enables organizations to bring all their data into a single platform for analysis.
  • 2
    Data Modeling:
    Looker uses a modeling layer that abstracts the complexities of underlying data sources. This modeling layer allows you to create a semantic layer, defining business logic, metrics, and relationships between data tables. With this layer, data can be presented in a more business-friendly manner, making it easier for non-technical users to query and analyze data.
  • 3
    Query and Analysis:
    Looker provides a web-based interface that allows users to create, share, and run data queries and reports. Users can write LookML (Looker Modeling Language) or use a visual interface to build custom reports and dashboards.
  • 4
    Real-Time Data:
    Looker can pull real-time data from GCP services, providing up-to-the-minute insights into your business metrics. This is particularly valuable for organizations that require real-time monitoring and decision-making.
  • 5
    Visualizations and Dashboards:
    Looker offers a wide range of visualization options, and users can create interactive dashboards to visualize data trends, patterns, and anomalies. These dashboards can be shared with teams and stakeholders.
  • 6
    Collaboration:
    Looker supports collaboration by allowing users to share reports and dashboards with team members. It also has annotation and commenting features, which help users collaborate and discuss findings directly within the platform.
  • 7
    Embedded Analytics:
    Looker can be embedded into other applications or websites, allowing organizations to provide data-driven insights to their customers or partners without them needing to access the Looker interface directly.
  • 8
    Security and Governance:
    Looker provides a robust set of security and governance features, including data access controls, encryption, single sign-on (SSO) integration, and auditing capabilities. This ensures that sensitive data is protected and that access to data is controlled.
  • 9
    Scalability:
    Looker can scale to handle large datasets and growing numbers of users, making it suitable for both small and large organizations.

When using Looker with GCP, organizations can take advantage of GCP's data storage and processing capabilities, such as BigQuery for data warehousing and data processing. This combination allows for powerful data analytics, insights, and visualization, making it easier for organizations to make data-driven decisions and gain valuable insights from their data.
