We use cohorts to analyze retention and we use funnels to examine a user's success in completing a certain flow or process.

This event will teach you how to use CQL to take funnel and cohort analysis to the next level. CQL is a new SQL syntax which simplifies advanced Big Data queries. As a behavioral extension of the set-based SQL, CQL is a useful tool for querying a sequence of behavioral user events.

Eric von Coelln, a veteran of mobile game startups, will explain how to use cohorts and funnels in games analytics.
