## Why Superset? Superset provides: - An intuitive interface for visualizing datasets and crafting interactive dashboards - A wide array of beautiful visualizations to showcase your data - Code-free visualization builder to extract and present datasets - A world-class SQL IDE for preparing data for visualization, including a rich metadata browser - A lightweight semantic layer which empowers data analysts to quickly define custom dimensions and metrics - Out-of-the-box support for most SQL-speaking databases - Seamless, in-memory asynchronous caching and queries - An extensible security model that allows configuration of very intricate rules on who can access which product features and datasets. - Integration with major authentication backends (database, OpenID, LDAP, OAuth, REMOTE_USER, etc) - The ability to add custom visualization plugins - An API for programmatic customization - A cloud-native architecture designed from the ground up for scale ## Supported Databases Superset can query data from any SQL-speaking datastore or data engine (e.g. Presto or Athena) that has a Python DB-API driver and a SQLAlchemy dialect. Here are some of the major database solutions that are supported:
