Company Details

PipelineDB is an open-source relational database that runs SQL queries on real-time streaming data and stores the results in tables incrementally which can be queried like any other table or view. Built into the PostgreSQL core and can be used as a drop in replacement for PostgreSQL without making any application code changes. Comes pre-installed with PostGIS. Eliminates ETL by streaming granular data in the database, which is distilled continously with declared SQL queries. Integrated relational storage engine enables comparison and analysis by joining streaming data with historical data.
