Summary

Hex has integrated VegaFusion into its data visualization product, allowing for interactive data visualizations at a much higher scale. VegaFusion pushes aggregation for charts down to server-side operations, enabling operations on large datasets while minimizing the amount of data pushed to the client and maintaining full frontend interactivity. The company has also relicensed VegaFusion to be more permissive (to BSD-3 from AGPL) in hopes of spurring creativity and unlocking its power for others in the community, including competitors.
