There are over 200,000 API?s on the web today, and more being added all the time. And the vast majority of these API?s provide JSON data via a REST interface. Unless you are a developer you generally can?t do much with this data or get any value from it. API?s are by design built for developers.
The Multidimensional Relational Algebra, or MRA, is at the core of everything we do at Precog. It’s what enables our product to provide such a smooth and intuitive user experience.
JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation, and it?s a way to format data. It was developed in the early 2000s, but it?s only in the last few years that it?s really caught on.
