Looker
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE
Looker is a cloud-based business intelligence and analytics platform from Google Cloud that lets organizations explore, analyze, and share real-time business insights. It uses a semantic modeling layer (LookML) to define consistent metrics across the organization and supports interactive dashboards, embedded analytics, and a wide range of database connections.
Looker + MotherDuck
Looker integrates with MotherDuck through the Postgres endpoint, which exposes MotherDuck to Looker as a Postgres-compatible connection. This integration enables analytics teams to model their MotherDuck data in LookML and serve dashboards backed by MotherDuck's serverless DuckDB engine, combining Looker's governed semantic layer with the speed and cost efficiency of MotherDuck.
Customer Success Stories
Operations and analytics teams use Looker with MotherDuck:
- Trunkrs migrated 700GB from Redshift to MotherDuck and uses pg_duckdb as a proxy for Looker, making live operational dashboards "a lot snappier" for their daily day-start meetings.
