   It doesn't say it is just 6m rows. It is 6m patient, which only hints that one of the dimension tables is 6m. Facts gathered in patients might be significantly larger. Also, my experience is saying, if you have hundreds of queries runn

    I felt like this article was describing a company that has nothing to do with Revolut. We have never been told to work late hours or weekends, for example.

    In the context of engineering, the coolest thing is probably the absolute freedom in experimenting with new tools and technologies.
