Description: A system for analyzing time series data using MongoDB and Node.

Latest version: 1.0.1

# Cube

**Cube** is a system for collecting timestamped events and deriving metrics. By collecting events rather than metrics, Cube lets you compute aggregate statistics *post hoc*. It also enables richer analysis, such as quantiles and histograms of arbitrary event sets. Cube is built on [MongoDB](http://www.mongodb.org) and available under the [Apache License](/square/cube/blob/master/LICENSE).

## Status

Cube is **not under active development, maintenance or support by Square** (or by its original author Mike Bostock). It has been deprecated internally for over a year. We keep it running for historical interest because it powers some interesting visualizations, but new production systems have replaced it for analytics purposes.

[Infochimps](https://github.com/infochimps-labs/cube) worked on a fork of Cube which diverged slightly from the Square version. Github user [Marsup](https://github.com/marsup/cube) has been working to [merge the two versions](https://github.com/square/cube/pull/129) with some success, but there are no plans to complete the merge or publish new versions under the original Square repository or npm package.
