Airbnb uses Druid which is essentially an OLAP cube.
> BigQuery, for instance, doesn’t allow you to update data at all
It's not like that anymore since several years.

- tveita 7y agoDruid is a column store geared towards OLAP workloads, which seems to support the article's point. It does not store its data in a "cube" layout as far as I can tell, just by time and individual columns.
- lkcubing 7y agoAmazon uses Apache Kylin, which is a modern OLAP cube technology.
- shadowsun7 7y agoAmazon also uses Redshift, which is a modern columnar database. An example does not an argument make.
