Self-service analytics with Metabase and Cube
Build a Metabase Semantic Layer with Cube.
How Cube and Metabase work together
Cube sits between your data source and Metabase, providing consumers with consistently defined, secure, and performant data. By managing data modeling, access control, and caching upstream, you can be sure every data consumer in your org using Metabase—and every other data app—will be working with the same fast data protected by the same permissions.
Power your data applications with Metabase and Cube
Headless = Customized
Decoupling BI from your front-end means orchestrating data modeling, access control, and caching once—while building presentation layers for any use case.
Easily tailor your
user experience.
Performance + Reliability
Redundantly and directly querying your data source results in latency and unnecessary costs. Cube’s caching layer, pre-aggregations, and query queuing fix that.
Skip latency;
expect speed.
Security + Governance
Reconfiguring data access control for every data app in your stack opens the door to inconsistencies and gaps. Centralize permissions upstream for uniform security.
Maintain ubiquitious
access control.
