The interesting bit for me about Minerva (predecessor to Transform) was the engineering rigor that the pipeline allowed. It's pretty easy to write a query that brings a DB to its knees and the source controlled and reviewed intermediary steps for producing metrics seemed like crucial features. If you then have a good catalog of what metrics exist you can let BI tools or business types with their own tools mix and match performant metrics to their hearts delight.
