The Data & Analytics team uses three primary tools for dashboards and reporting - Looker, Amplitude, and Redash. Other tooling is used across the org (ex. Google Analytics, Google Sheets, etc) but these two tools house the majority of the enterprise reporting content owned by D&A.
Looker is a business intelligence tool used for standard enterprise reporting and analysis.
All Sourcegraph employees can have View access to Looker, and select people have the ability to edit/create reports and explore datasets. If you need help getting a Looker account with View access, please reach out to #ask-it-tech-ops. If you have a looker account, but need the ability to create reports/explore datasets, please request temporary edit permissions via Entitle.
Looker is essentially the frontend interface for our BigQuery data warehouse. The data available in BigQuery/Looker is evolving all the time, but here are a few of the primary data sources:
To find content you may be interested in, we recommend subscribing to "boards" that are relevant to you. “Boards” are collections of dashboards and looks related to a specific team or initiative. We've curated these boards to make it easy for you to browse content for the teams/initiatives you're interested in.
A few of these boards are listed below, but our boards are evolving every day, so we recommend browsing our boards in Looker directly. You can do this by going to the menu (from wherever you are in looker, click the three lines in the top left to go to the menu!) then click the “+” next to “Boards” in the left navigation menu and select “Browse all boards”
