Cube and the Semantic Layer with Artyom Keydunov

"I think we really never really thought about how are we going to make money. We thought that we needed to at some point, but we didn't think about specifics."

Eric Anderson (@ericmander) talks with Artyom Keydunov (@keydunov) about Cube, the semantic layer for building data applications. Cube helps engineers bridge data warehouses and data experiences, and provides access control, security, caching, and more helpful features. The project began in open-source and has evolved quite a lot over the last few years with a ton of community support.
