Apache Superset Implementation in Oxford

Implementing Apache Superset for Oxford organisations, where what you are adopting is an application to operate rather than a product to subscribe to. It needs a metadata database, a cache, worker processes for asynchronous queries and someone responsible for upgrades — none of which appears in a comparison that only looks at licence cost.

Why this comes up

The problem

It was deployed with the quick-start configuration, and there is no cache, no workers and no backup of the metadata database.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Every component deployed deliberately — metadata database, cache and workers
  • Asynchronous query execution configured so long queries do not block the interface
  • Security hardened, since the default configuration is not production-ready
  • Database connections created with least-privilege credentials
  • Metadata database backed up, as it holds every chart and dashboard definition
  • Upgrade approach planned, because the project moves at a real pace

Working in Oxford

South East

Oxford's economy runs on research and life sciences, and a lot of the work here starts with a research group or spin-out that needs a prototype turned into something other people can safely use.

Research groups and spin-outs needing a prototype turned into a supportable product make up most of the local demand.

Apache Superset Implementation in Oxford — common questions

What does the quick-start configuration leave out?
Most of what production needs. It runs without a proper cache, without workers for long queries and with default secrets, which is entirely appropriate for evaluation and inadequate the moment real users depend on it.
Why do we need workers?
So that a slow query does not block the interface. Without asynchronous execution, a user running something expensive occupies a web process, and a handful of those makes the whole instance unresponsive for everybody else.
What is in the metadata database?
Every chart, dashboard, saved query and permission — the entire configuration of the instance. It is small and it is irreplaceable, and losing it means rebuilding by hand everything anyone has created since deployment.
How much effort are upgrades?
Modest per release and substantial if deferred. The project releases regularly with occasional breaking changes, so keeping reasonably current is routine work — while an instance two years behind requires a staged migration nobody planned for. Scheduling upgrades as maintenance is what keeps this a small recurring task rather than an eventual project.
Do you work with businesses across Oxfordshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Oxford and the surrounding Oxfordshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Oxford businesses do you usually work with?
Research groups and spin-outs needing a prototype turned into a supportable product make up most of the local demand. Beyond that we work across Research & Higher Education, Life Sciences, Publishing, Technology and Tourism.
Do you cover the areas around Oxford?
Yes — we work throughout South East, including Reading, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, London. Oxford is an urban area of roughly 170,000+, and we take on work across the wider Oxfordshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
