I suggest Barbie and I (and others) talk this out in Paris at the end of the month. MongoDB is the leading candidate to replace Amazon's SimpleDB as the indexed part of Metabase storage and one (crazy?) option is to set up people who need it (cpandeps, analysis) with replicated slaves (without allowing external read-access -- essentially backup slaves). Then it would pretty much stay up to date automatically and be fast to query locally. Another option is to finally get the web query API opened up to the public so people could pull their own datasets from Metabase on a regular basis. But as I said, I'd rather we hammer this out in person rather than do something hasty and have yet another patchwork solution. -- DavidThread Previous | Thread Next
