How To Enhance AG Grid with Avatars: Building a Collaborative Grid with React and Ably
In this post I’ll show you how, using the AG Grid component and Ably Spaces, you can create a React application that allows users to see not only who else is currently viewing the grid, but using a Flowbite Avatar Stack component, what row each user currently has selected.

Frontend app that pulls api data and displays it in tables that can be sorted, filtered etc
I personally use https://www.ag-grid.com/ for all my data grid needs. It has a free community version (that should get you covered imo) as well as a paid one with advanced features.

Show HN: Halloy – A GUI Application in Rust for IRC
To be fair, in any GUI toolkit, the "table" is abolutely the most complex general purpose widget. People really under estimate the difficult of an efficient implementation. Qt spents YEARS improving their QTableWidget class. The implementation is mind-bogglingly complex. I am sure many very smart summer interns (PhDs!) have tried to tweak that class to squeeze every bit of performance possible. The table class in GTK+ and MSFT DotNet's WPF are equally, freakishly insane.
Consider this idea: Most people who use a table class in a GUI framework assume it is essentially infinitely scalable (myself included!). I am talking about millions of rows or thousands of columns with all kinds of silly widgets injected into individual cells. It is a crazy hard computer science problem to solve. I would not doubt there are many PhD thesises written on the topic of fast, scalable table widgets.
Beyond desktop GUI toolkits, people have tried to do the same in a browser (HTML/CSS/JS). Have you seen AG-Grid? Woah, it is unbelievable how much goddamn data you can squeeze into that widget. Most Wall Streets web-based trading apps use it one way or another. It's just so hard to beat. Ref: https://www.ag-grid.com/ There must be 1,000 person years of optimisation sunk into that implementation.

MQL – Client and Server to query your DB in natural language
I should have clarified. There's a large number of apps that are:
1. taking info strictly from SQL (e.g. information_schema, query history)
2. taking a user input / question
3. writing SQL to answer that question
An app like this is what I call "text-to-sql". Totally agree a better system would pull in additional documentation (which is what we're doing), but I'd no longer consider it "text-to-sql". In our case, we're not even directly writing SQL, but rather generating semantic layer queries (i.e. https://cube.dev/).

Show HN: Spice.ai – materialize, accelerate, and query SQL data from any source
I'm not too familiar with https://cube.dev/ - but my initial impression is they are focused more on providing APIs backed by SQL. They have a SQL API that emulates the PostgreSQL wire protocol, whereas Spice implements Arrow and Flight SQL natively. Their pre-aggregations are a similar concept to Spice's data accelerators. It also looks like they have their own query language, whereas Spice is native SQL as well.

Show HN: Delphi – Build customer-facing AI data apps (that work)
Hey HN!
Over the past year, my co-founder David and I have been building Delphi to let developers create amazing customer-facing AI experiences on top of their data. We're excited to share it with you.
David and I have spent our careers leading data and engineering teams. After ChatGPT got popular, we saw a rush of "chat with your data" startups launch. Most of these are "text-to-SQL" and use an LLM like GPT-4 to generate SQL queries that run directly against a data warehouse or database.
However, the general perception now is most of them make for nice demos but are hard to make work in the real world. The reason is data complexity. Even smart LLMs find it difficult to reason about messy databases with hundreds of tables, thousands of columns, and complex schemas that have been built up piece-meal for years. Text-to-SQL can be a fine dev tool for data scientists and analysts, but we've seen many organizations hesitate to deploy it to end users, who never know if the answer they get one day will be the same the next.
David and I found a better way. From our time in the data engineering world, we were familiar with a type of tool called "semantic layers." Think of them like an ORM for analytics. Basically, they sit between databases (or data warehouses) and data consumers (data viz tools like Tableau or APIs) and map real-world concepts (entities like "customers" and metrics like "sales") to database tables and calculations.
Semantic layers are often used for "embedded analytics" (e.g. when you're building customer-facing dashboards into your application) but are increasingly also used for traditional business intelligence. Cube (https://cube.dev) is a prominent example, and dbt has also recently released one. They're useful because with a semantic layer, the consumer doesn't have to think about questions like "how do we define revenue?" when running a query. They just get consistent, governed data definitions across their business.
We realized that semantic layers could be just as useful for LLMs as for humans. After all, LLMs are built on natural language, so a system that deterministically translates natural language concepts into code has obvious power when you're working with LLMs. With a semantic layer, we've found that companies can get AI to answer much more complex questions than without it.
For a year now, we've been building Delphi to do just that. We've gone through a few iterations/pivots (initially we were focused on building a Slack bot for internal analytics) and are now seeing our developer-first approach resonate. We're being used to power customer-facing fintech applications, recruiting software, and more.
How do you use Delphi? The first step is connecting your database; then, we build your semantic layer on top of it. Right now we do this manually, but we're moving more and more of it over to AI. Once that's done, we have 3 main ways of using Delphi: 1) white-labeling our AI analytics platform and providing it to your customers; 2) a streaming REST API and SDKs; and 3) React components to easily drop a "chat with your data" experience into your app.

Apache Superset
We use https://cube.dev/ as intermediate layer between data warehouse database and Superset (and other "terminal" apps for BI like report generators). You define your schema (metrics, dimensions, joins, calculated metrics etc) in cube and then access them by any tool that can connect to SQL db

Need to reduce costs - which service to use?
also check out cube.dev. they can do the semantic layer and cache it so you are not hitting Snowflake all the time.

Anyone with experience moving to Cube.dev + Metabase/Superset from Looker ?
We need metrics to live in source control with reviews. Metabase doesn't have a git integration for metrics, which is why we are convinced to use cube.dev as a semantic layer.
