Overview
Tinybird is a real-time data platform that lets you build fast APIs on top of your data with SQL. It ingests data from various sources (Kafka, databases, webhooks, files), stores it in a columnar database (ClickHouse), and lets you query it with SQL to create instant APIs. What makes Tinybird unique is its focus on real-time analytics APIs - you can build dashboards, user-facing analytics, and operational metrics that update in real-time. The platform handles data ingestion at massive scale, with sub-second query latencies even on billions of rows. Tinybird's SQL-based approach means you don't need to learn new languages - write SQL queries and publish them as REST APIs with automatic documentation. It includes features like materialized views for pre-aggregation, parameterized queries, and version control for your data pipelines. Perfect for building product analytics, monitoring dashboards, real-time reporting, and any application requiring fast queries on large datasets. Used by companies needing user-facing analytics or real-time data products.
