There are a few similar technologies out there some of which are open source. Prestodb comes to mind but there's also some other closed systems like powerbi (with some underlying azure distributed data warehouse bits), etc out there.

What's happening in the industry I think is that there was a first wave of data discovery products (tableau being the prime example) that seek to get you right to reporting and data exploration side without necessarily having to slog through all the data warehouse design, and now a second wave like powerbi, etc that are pure saas plays that do something very similar are starting to come out.

I had never heard of Prestodb. That looks very interesting. Any other solutions that you are familiar with?
