This dbt package:
- Transforms and aggregates raw web event data collected from the Snowplow JavaScript tracker into a set of derived tables: page views, sessions and users.
- Derives a mapping between user identifiers, allowing for 'session stitching' and the development of a single customer view.
- Processes all web events incrementally. It is not just constrained to page view events - any custom events you are tracking will also be incrementally processed.
- Is designed in a modular manner, allowing you to easily integrate your own custom SQL into the incremental framework provided by the package.
Please refer to the doc site for a full breakdown of the package.
