At Troops we had a challenge - turn our RDS Postgres database into a full BI stack that combines our transactional data with sales and web analytics data and is simple enough for business users to use. And we need it by Friday! In this talk, I will show how we leveraged AWS and various 3rd party tools to make this a reality and the power it brought to the business.
The next edition is programmed by practitioners. Tell us what you built and what you learned.
