The goal is to move from mondrian api to tesseract ? Tasks 1, 2 and 4 are done. Going for 3 and 5 now

davelandry commented 3 years ago

Yes, we want to move everything to tesseract... eventually. There's A LOT of data here, so I want to be strategic about a slow migration to tesseract (because the front-end systems, like the vizbuilder, can theoretically use both mondrian and tesseract at the same time!). For this current malachite task, I just want to test if that's even possible. @innerstage only has 2 cubes on that tesseract server (BLS unemployment), so I just want to fold those into our current backend stack (going from 2 databases to 3).
