MetricFlow allows you to define, build, and maintain metrics in code
Welcome to MetricFlow
MetricFlow is a computational framework for building and maintaining consistent metric logic. The name comes from the approach taken to generate metrics. Using the user-defined semantic model, a query is first compiled into a metric dataflow plan. The plan is then converted to an abstract SQL object model, optimized, then rendered to engine-specific SQL.
MetricFlow provides a set of abstractions that help you construct complicated logic and aggregate metrics to a range of granularities. As a developer you can also use MetricFlow’s interfaces to construct APIs for integrations to bring metrics into downstream tools in your data stack.
MetricFlow itself acts as a semantic layer, compiling the semantic information described in the MetricFlow spec to SQL that
