> We accelerated the pipelines that produce the Overture buildings data pipeline, which is made up of 2.3bn geometries and growing, by up to 20x after we moved them to Wherobots. This just required a simple redirection of our code. We retained compatibility with Apache Sedona, and the move put us into a development experience that’s made us much more productive
