Operational Impact
Empowered Business Users: The King BI team expected Looker to help the game studio data scientists and BPMs, but the value of Looker has become evident to a wide range of groups across the company. | |
A Return to Strategic Focus for Data Scientists: Because the studio teams embracing Looker get the analytics they need instantly through self-service dashboards, studio data scientists are less likely to be called on to write routine queries and instead can focus on the high-value work that only they can do. | |
Increased Efficiency for Centralized Engineering: The centralized data teams are still very busy, but now they focus on the accuracy, integrity, and quality of their data pipelines and data models written in LookML, Looker’s modeling language. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Years of effort have been condensed into the first seven months using the tool. | |
Hundreds of reports users have built and scheduled themselves would have taken the centralized teams a year or more to make for them. | |
