About a year ago, a Full360 gaming customer had a requirement to create an analytics data warehouse for in-game events. These events are generated by various mobile and desktop versions of their games, representing significant actions in the game such as wins, losses, level ups, and in-game currency transactions. The final target for the data was a Vertica database running on AWS EC2 instances… to be analyzed and visualized with Tableau.
