## What it is
Cube is a system for collecting timestamped events and deriving metrics, built on MongoDB and Node.js, with time series visualization. It computes aggregate statistics post hoc, enabling richer analysis such as quantiles and histograms of arbitrary event sets.

## Use cases
- collect timestamped events and compute metrics later
- visualize time series data in dashboards
- compute quantiles and histograms over event sets
- self-hosted analytics on MongoDB
- aggregate statistics from raw event streams

## When to choose
- you need post hoc aggregation over raw timestamped events
- you want quantiles and histograms of arbitrary event sets
- you are studying historical event-driven analytics architectures

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained or supported software
- starting a new production analytics system
- you want modern time series tooling with ongoing updates

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: analytics, data-visualization, monitoring, database, charts
- domain: analytics, time-series, data-visualization, big-data, monitoring
- platform: self-hosted
- tags: time-series, mongodb, event-collection, metrics, dashboards, deprecated, nodejs, web-server
