Hub & Spoke architecture

[David_P1]

Hi,

I’d like to re-structure our current data model using the hub&spoke architecture. Are there any guides/documentation available?

What was your experiencing in using this type of architecture? I specifically would like to leverage the modularization benefits that this model would bring.

Thanks!

There’s not an official one (that I’m aware of), but most of our Marketplace code blocks (like Google Analytics) utilize this architecture and could serve as inspiration. The LookML tools you’ll use will end up being:
