Is Tableau Dead?
I try to avoid these tools wherever possible, given the choice I'd always go for tools like Blazer.

No such luck in my current role, Looker and PowerBI are both in use by different bits of the org and nobody has the ability to delve into the underlying figures.

BI vs custom queries in app
As u/jaxn said you could use Blazer for this kind of thing. I would also look into materialized views or custom tables and a scheduled job that calculates the metrics they care about. That will take you a long way. Eventually you can use something like Metabase but I would put that off for as long as possible as it's really expensive and pretty involved.

I'd also highly recommend Blazer https://github.com/ankane/blazer if you are into the Ruby on Rails world. It's super solid, and it's been an indispensable tool integrated to all my projects.

Italian watchdog bans use of Google Analytics
I use Ahoy too, but I don't have very good visibility into the data. I should spend more time building queries and creating charts. I should probably set up blazer as well: https://github.com/ankane/blazer

Using Scientist to Refactor Critical Ruby on Rails Code
The Blazer gem provides a nice way to analyze the results easily. It is simple to install and allows SQL queries to run against tables. The query here shows that the candidate implementation is significantly faster than the original.

Inherited rails app - what the hell are all these rack timeout lines in the log?
Without seeing more of the app, it's tough to say for certain, but one gem you might find helpful is the [bullet](https://github.com/flyerhzm/bullet) gem -- set this up in the app then start browsing around the app in development. If you have any N+1 queries or other minor optimizations that could be done it will inform you about them.

Getting rid of N+1 queries - This can help improve the speed of an app. The Bullet or Prosopite gems can give a lending hand here. The N+1 Dilemma — Bullet or Prosopite? entails a brief comparison of both.

Understanding N and 1 queries problem
There's a Ruby gem called Bullet that identifies and warns developers about N+1 problems. You can also have it fail tests if detected.
I don't know if the approach is possible with every ORM or if it's just leveraging some Ruby perks, but I can't think of a good reason why you wouldn't use the equivalent everywhere.

Help with N+1 problem.
You might consider adding the bullet gem as a development requirement and see what it tells you, it's generally pretty good at spotting n-queries and letting you know how to fix them.

Understanding and Fixing N+1 Query
As a Rails developer, recently I found Bullet [0] which helps massively in dealing with eager loading. For some reason I expected the framework to manage this sort of thing for me, even when Rails actually does a ton out of the box already. Only while refactoring I picked up on queries dragging performance. Oh well...

How do you find the cause of slowness in your app?
This is good advice, it'll likely pick out some glaring issues right away. I would generally recommend looking at DB queries here too and recommend Bullet, but most software like DataDog, AppSignal etc will often also point N+1 and issues like it out.

In order to find all those N + 1 queries that are slowing down in your application, the community recommends using the Bullet gem.
