## What it is
Open Mining is a self-hosted Business Intelligence (BI) application server written in Python 2.7, providing OLAP cubes, dashboards, charts, and widgets over SQL databases via SQLAlchemy. It relies on MongoDB, Redis, and Celery for administration, queuing, and scheduling.

## Use cases
- build bi dashboards from sql databases
- run olap cubes in python
- self-hosted business intelligence server
- visualize database metrics with charts and widgets
- schedule and cache olap cube queries

## When to choose
- you need a legacy Python 2 BI server and can maintain it yourself
- you want an open-source OLAP cube dashboard with MongoDB and Redis already in your stack

## When to avoid
- you need maintained software - the repository was archived in 2021 and is read-only
- your stack is Python 3 only
- you want modern BI tooling with active community support

## Facets
- artifact type: application
