Broxel migrates to Google Cloud and brings its governed data to Looker
Broxel's accelerated growth required decisions based on fresh, governed data, integrating a wide variety of sources that its legacy reporting tools could not scale. Amarello and Broxel migrated to Google Cloud and built a new data architecture: a central repository in BigQuery, integration through Change Data Capture and Looker for end users.
