QuestDB leaps your team forward

Leadership through open formats

Globally distributed, hyper-fast next generation database

Open formats: Leverages existing open formats. No vendor lock-in.
Apache Parquet: Enhanced compression and encoding, for ingress or egress.
Super read/write: In-memory processing, combined with SQL.
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

Use QuestDB with the tools you love

Simple, high performance SQL

Easily adopted, time-series optimized SQL

SELECT timestamp, symbol, price
FROM trades
WHERE timestamp IN '2024-06-21;1M';

-- Search time
SELECT timestamp, symbol, price
FROM trades
WHERE timestamp IN '2024-06-21;1M';

SELECT timestamp, symbol, avg(price)
FROM trades
SAMPLE BY 5m FILL(LINEAR);

-- Slice time
SELECT timestamp, symbol, avg(price)
FROM trades
SAMPLE BY 5m FILL(LINEAR);

SELECT timestamp, symbol, price
FROM trades
LATEST ON timestamp PARTITION BY symbol;

-- Navigate time
SELECT timestamp, symbol, price
FROM trades
LATEST ON timestamp PARTITION BY symbol;

SELECT timestamp, bid_price, ask_price
FROM bids
ASOF JOIN asks;

-- Merge time
SELECT timestamp, bid_price, ask_price
FROM bids
ASOF JOIN asks;

Search Time

Filter and search for specific timestamps with "WHERE"

Slice Time

Create time buckets and aggregate by intervals with "SAMPLE BY"

Navigate Time

Search time series from most recent values to oldest with "LATEST ON"

Merge Time

Join two tables based on timestamp where timestamps do not exactly match with "ASOF JOIN"

Peak performance time-series

Hyper ingestion

For massive volumes of time-series data, trust a specialized time-series database. Timestamps are first-class, and blistering throughput is sustained even through the highest data cardinality. Deduplication and out-of-order ingestion also work right out-of-the-box.

Better on a Pi, best on full hardware

Max performance, min hardware

Compute costs keep rising. Keep them low with an efficient solution. QuestDB runs well on low hardware, within high cardinality data and with deduplication and out-of-order indexing. On just a 4GB Raspberry Pi, QuestDB outperforms competitors on robust hardware. Have robust hardware? QuestDB scales up to many millions of rows per second.
