Show HN: Delve, an open source (AGPL) enterprise-grade data
analytics platform
Hello, I am excited to announce the release of my project that I've
been working on for quite a while. It has gone through many
iterations. I believe that I now have a scalable platform that can
efficiently ingest, search and report on large quantities of data.
If you are at a very large scale, there will need to be some work
to streamline your database access, but it is very possible to
build a flexible and robust solution. Delve is built using Django,
Django Rest Framework, webpack, JS and SCSS. Delve can be extended
with apps, which are actually specially built Django apps. Delve
has a unix-pipe-like search language that is powered by simple
python scripts. The Delve Web UI has support for showing data in
tables, line charts and bar charts with more visualizations on the
way. I am excited to hear your feedback and suggestions. I will
be trying to monitor the comments and reply quickly.

| It seems like Delve is a popular name for software, which makes
| sense.
|
| I am officially looking for a new name for this software.
|
| It used to be called Flashlight, as in "A portable tool to
| shine some light on your data", but I liked the name Delve and
| a naive google search didn't reveal any projects named delve.
|
| As an aside, Delve is not only popular in software naming, but
| it also appears in the English language writing quite a lot.

| It does sound like there are some collisions but that doesn't

| have many options for adjusting it. The domain name can have
| suffix or prefix or just "analytics." And realistically
| people are going to google "delve analytics" if they can't
| find it.
