Introducing Hack the Domo Stack: A Series for Builders and Innovators

Imagine a place where your data ideas don’t sit around collecting dust but come alive and gain momentum. That’s the spirit of Hack the Domo Stack, a new series dedicated to the builders, data pros, and the endlessly curious who are eager to discover just how far they can take the Domo platform.

Maybe you’re a tinkerer in your free time or maybe you wrangle data for a living.  This series is for those like you who see Domo as something more than a business dashboard.  

Here’s your invitation to explore, experiment, and, quite possibly, surprise yourself with what’s possible.

What is the Domo stack?

Let’s clear up the lingo. When we say the “Domo stack,” we’re talking about all the tools and features Domo provides that make it a true creative engine. Think app-building, flexible data pipelines, workflow automation, and collaboration tools...plus all the behind-the-scenes options that give you room to dig in, play, and create.

Yes, of course some folks stick to Domo’s visualizations, and that’s totally fine. But the real magic reveals itself when you use the Domo stack to do things like connect oddball systems, automate clunky processes, or invent something brand new that drives business value.  

Why “Hack the Domo Stack”?

Sometimes the only way to solve a stubborn problem means changing your perspective by looking at it sideways, upside down, or through a lens no one’s tried yet. That’s what we mean by “hack.” Instead of cutting corners and breaking rules, we’re applying practical creativity: clever workarounds, custom apps, and workflow automations you create when an off-the-shelf option isn’t quite enough.

Hack the Domo Stack is where those stories come to life and find their audience. Each post explores real-world builds from Domo experts and guest builders who refuse to settle for ordinary. The goal is simple: sparking ideas you’ll want to borrow, remix, or make your own.

Who is this series for?

If you get a kick out of turning a wild data request into something that actually works, you’re in the right place. Maybe you’re a data architect who loves fitting puzzle pieces together. Or you're an engineer tired of tedious manual tasks. Perhaps you’re a scientist ready to put a new kind of model into action, or an analyst itching to do more than just report the numbers.

Building in Domo isn’t tied to any one job title. We’ve made it so anyone who wants to deliver answers fast, solve problems creatively, and have a little fun along the way is welcome.

Series sneak peek: Bold builds ahead

Curious what we’ll cover first? We’ll kick off by pulling back the curtain on our most popular Domopalooza breakout: real-world budgeting solutions built directly inside Domo. Forget the spaghetti mess of spreadsheets—this is streamlined, collaborative planning adapted to your business.

We’ll also tackle the art of monetizing your data. You’ll see how forward-thinking data leaders are using Domo to deliver insights while also creating real revenue streams. When you start to treat your data as an asset and not just an answer, the possibilities multiply.

This is only the beginning. Look out for hands-on guides, workflow automations, and Domo best practices you won’t find in any manual. Every idea, every hack, every hard-won lesson, all the “wait, you can do that?!” moments come straight from real teams doing the real work.

Building more in Domo together

Here’s the beauty of building in Domo: You don’t have to wait on a new platform rollout or some green light from on high to start experimenting. You can test a new process. Stitch together disconnected systems. Or spin up a proof-of-concept to solve a problem that no one else wants to tackle anytime you want.

In each Hack the Domo Stack post, you’ll find practical tools you can make your own. No broad tips. Just real solutions you can put to work right away, whether you’re streamlining a pipeline or wrestling with messy data flows.

Guest builds, animated demos, and workflow examples are all part of the mix. Built something wild in Domo? Your story deserves a spot here too. Let’s get it out there. You never know who it’ll inspire or what it’ll lead to.
