Product GA Release of C2024.1.1 on May 31, 2024
AtScale C2024.1.x marks the next generation of semantic layer development. Completely re-architected but retaining AtScale’s core competencies (robust semantic layer and autonomous aggregations), AtScale C2024.1.x is poised to accelerate development, introduce a broad community and lead innovation in the semantic layer ecosystem.
Containerized Architecture
C2024.1.x is a microservice architecture offering new deployment options via Kubernetes or Docker, enhancing scalability, elasticity, resilience, and automation, while ensuring seamless integration with cloud environments such as Snowflake, Databricks, and Google BigQuery. This approach enables AtScale to enhance enterprise integration and authentication achieved through open-source packaging for Keycloak, OpenTelemetry OpenAPI, and KeyGen, with additional BI tooling and open protocols support.
Semantic Modeling Language
SML is a YAML-based modeling approach. Data model constructs are broken out into discrete parts allowing for object-oriented construction by code or drag and drop. The AtScale modeling environment was redesigned to support no-code and code-first data modeling within the same user experience.
Git Integration
In order to properly support code-first modeling and enhance CI/CD automation, C2024.1.x introduces code repo integration into the semantic modeling Integrated Development Environment (IDE). With this integration, C2024.1.x now supports multi-developer work on concurrent data models, diff comparison, commit/revert all while supporting the customer’s diverse Git repo management styles.
The C2024.1.x architecture and features allowed AtScale to offer in this release:
- Native Cloud offering in Google Cloud Marketplace and Snowflake Snowpark Container Services (SPCS).
- Developer Community Edition is now publicly available for anyone to download immediately. This free edition provides access to AtScale’s semantic layer platform, the new semantic modeling language (SML), and a repository of pre-built, reusable semantic models in GitHub. It is designed to foster a community of users who can build and share semantic models across industries and platforms.
- dbt Metrics Translator which allows dbt semantic models to seamlessly integrate with AtScale’s live query support for tools like Tableau, Power BI, and Excel.
