It connects to any relational database like Amazon Redshift or Google BigQuery, and automatically generates data models for specific schemas. Users can refine the models to reflect company-specific metrics and business logic to build KPI dashboards and departmental reports. The provider also offers an embedded analytics platform, Powered by Looker.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In a statement to the press, the company&#8217;s co-founder, Chairman and CTO Lloyd Tabb said: &#8220;Much of the work in machine learning centers around data preparation and ML model evaluation and tuning.\u00a0Looker and BigQuery ML are great together in that Looker handles the data preparation and BigQuery ML does the learning. [We] can also help you evaluate and tune ML models to integrate predictions into dashboards and data workflows.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Google&#8217;s Director of Product Management Sudhir Hasbe echoed the sentiment, adding: &#8220;Looker\u2019s integration with BigQuery ML adds powerful capabilities for our joint customers who can now use it to run ML models directly in BigQuery and surface the predictive insights across their organizations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In May Looker <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/business-intelligence\/looker-unveils-new-integrations-for-data-science-workflows\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">unveiled a new collection<\/a> of features aimed\u00a0at optimizing data science workflows.
