Integrating Segment with Data Warehouse/Visualization Tools

Hey folks, sharing a discussion that kicked off in this thread about integrating Segment events into a data warehouse + bringing those events into data visualization tools. Sharing in case the conversation is helpful for others:At Wave, our team is just starting to tap into the potential of Segment events in our Redshift data warehouse - since we brought them into the warehouse a couple of month ago.We use Looker as our data visualization platform so there’s an added layer of complexity bringing Segment events into that platform in a way that is properly modelled and ready for presentation to stakeholders.Would love to hear of any other experiences others have had bringing Segment data into your warehouse and data visualization/dashboarding tools.

React Native SDK Offline Handling

  The main focus of this community post is to highlight how Segment handles offline situations using its React Native SDK, also having a closer look at the iOS library code to see how it works. Offline Handling in Segment React Native SDK When the React Native SDK tries to send an event and the device is offline, the event is not lost. Instead, it is saved into a queue. The SDK keeps attempting to send these queued events whenever the device regains its network connection. This queueing mechanism ensures that no events are lost due to temporary network connectivity issues.The offline handling mechanism is actually part of the underlying native libraries (iOS and Android). Offline Handling in Native Libraries (iOS example) To illustrate how offline handling works in native libraries, let's look at the iOS library (Objective-C).The core of the offline handling logic resides in a method called flush within the SEGSegmentIntegration.m file. Here's a simplified version of the flush method f
