Metrics Layer is an open source project with the goal of making access to metrics consistent throughout an organization. We believe you should be able to access consistent metrics from any tool you use to access data. This metrics layer is designed to work with Zenlytic as a BI tool. How does it work? Zenlytic is the only supported BI tool. The Metrics Layer will read your data model and give you the ability to access those metrics and dimensions in a python client library, or through SQL with a special MQL tag. Sound interesting? Here's how to set Metrics Layer up with your data model and start querying your metrics in in under 2 minutes . Installation Make sure that your data warehouse is one of the supported types. Metrics Layer currently supports Snowflake, BigQuery, Postgres, Druid (only SQL compilation, not running the query), DuckDB (only SQL compilation, not running the query), SQL Server (only SQL compilation, not running the query), and Redshift, and only works with python = 3.8 up to python < 3.11 . Install Metrics Layer with the appropriate extra for your warehouse For Snowflake run pip install metrics-layer[snowflake] For BigQuery run pip install metrics-layer[bigquery] For Redshift run pip install metrics-layer[redshift] For Postgres run pip install metrics-layer[postgres] Profile set up There are several ways to set up a profile, we're going to look at the fastest one here.
