Apache Superset is an open-source software application for data exploration and data visualization able to handle data at petabyte scale (big data). The application started as a hack-a-thon project by Maxime Beauchemin (creator of Apache Airflow) while working at Airbnb and entered the Apache Incubator program in 2017.{{Cite web|title=The history and anatomy of Apache Superset|url=https://www.datacouncil.ai/hubfs/DataEngConf/Data%20Council/Slides%20SF%2019/The%20history%20and%20anatomy%20of%20Apache%20Superset.pdf|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190724133645/https://www.datacouncil.ai/hubfs/DataEngConf/Data%20Council/Slides%20SF%2019/The%20history%20and%20anatomy%20of%20Apache%20Superset.pdf |archive-date=2019-07-24 }} In addition to Airbnb, the project has seen significant contributions from other leading technology companies, including Lyft and Dropbox.{{Cite web|title=Apache Superset (Incubating)|url=https://incubator.apache.org/clutch/superset.html|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200705145147/https://incubator.apache.org/clutch/superset.html|archive-date=2020-07-05}} Superset graduated from the incubator program and became a top-level project at the Apache Software Foundation in 2021.{{Cite web|last=Foundation|first=The Apache Software|date=2021-01-21|title=The Apache Software Foundation Announces Apache® Superset™ as a Top-Level Project|url=http://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/01/21/2162222/0/en/The-Apache-Software-Foundation-Announces-Apache-Superset-as-a-Top-Level-Project.html|access-date=2021-02-26|website=GlobeNewswire News Room}}
