Google kills plenty of its consumer products if they don’t catch on in a big way (Reader, Google+); and it certainly “transitions” developer-targeted product/service startups into plain features (Firebase, WordLens, etc.) But this is neither—it’s BI software, for enterprise customers who build it deeply into their decision-making in the same way they build Google Analytics itself into their decision-making. These are not the people even Google wants to make mad. They’re precisely the people writing the checks which make up the majority of Google’s ad revenue!
