- dgudkov 9y agoIs it any good?
- baconner 9y agoMy experience with this is it's more of a gimmick. It's cool when it works but most of the time I've found it simpler and more accurate to just select the data you want.
- greggyb 9y agoMostly agree with Baconner. It does help with discovery if configured well. 'Configured well' is a fairly high cost, so only worthwhile for a fairly simple data model that will have a large number of consumers. Typically, there's not much of a population of "people who are unfamiliar with the dataset, but need to ask questions of it".
- baconner 9y agoI do agree. It can work and when you've put the time into designing it to work then it can feel fairly magical, but there's a point at which you feel like you're almost pre-creating all the queries for users.
