Review (1-2 sentences): Uber started with a monolithic backend application that used Postgres. As the company evolved and grew, it moved to microservices and changed its approach to working with data. The paper explains why this migration happened and what benefits the company gets from it. There is nothing about OLAP in the paper but still a very interesting story.
