Peace of mind at any scale

Distributed writes and reads

Today: Automatic replication & failover; sub-second read replicas across regions via object storage (S3/Azure/GCS/NFS/HDFS).

Next (coming soon): Multi-primary writes for continuous availability and zero-downtime upgrades.
Distributed architecture

Primary instance writes data to a Write Ahead Log (WAL) and uploads these files to an object store. Replica instances download and apply these files to stay in sync.

Distributed architecture
Primary failover
Concurrent requests & multi-region
Open formats

Leverages existing open formats. No vendor lock-in.

Apache Parquet

Enhanced compression and encoding, for ingress or egress.

Super read/write

Fast ingest and low latency SQL queries

Full stream

Stream market data in from feeds or sensors, apply Parquet on read

Direct to Parquet?

Bypass QuestDB ingest, query Parquet directly from the object store

Versatile ecosystem

Diverse clients connect to your data, app, AI and ML frameworks
