Managed ClickHouse from Spain that turns SQL queries into production APIs, with streaming ingestion and zero-downtime schema changes for real-time dashboards and usage-based billing.
Tinybird is a managed ClickHouse platform that lets developers ship enterprise-grade analytical features faster and at a fraction of the cost of self-hosting. It handles streaming ingestion, SQL-based APIs, and zero-downtime schema changes, turning columnar analytics into a first-class building block for product teams building real-time dashboards, personalisation, and usage-based billing.
The service bundles high-throughput HTTP ingestion, native connectors for Kafka, S3, and GCS, an API layer that publishes parameterised SQL endpoints, and an AI-friendly developer experience with TypeScript and Python SDKs, a CLI, Git workflows, and an MCP server. Dedicated clusters, SLAs, and observability tooling cover teams moving from prototype to heavy production workloads.
Key benefits:
- Managed ClickHouse with serverless scaling and no cluster operations
- Streaming ingestion via HTTP plus Kafka, S3, and GCS connectors
- SQL-based APIs publish parameterised endpoints from versioned SQL files
- Zero-downtime migrations keep schemas and APIs in sync during deploys
- Git-native workflow with TypeScript, Python SDKs, and a full CLI
- Observability built-in with per-endpoint metrics and query logs
