The Problem

Data warehouses are the critical core of most modern architectures. Yet, they're expensive, proprietary, and unfamilar to most engineers. Every organization, from start-up to enterprise, has complex data problems. By building around Postgres, the Hydra team enables developers to scale their company's analytics with familiar Postgres tooling and existing know-how. Avoid proprietary warehouses that your team can't easily support and warehouse costs a COO will sweat over by using Hydra.

Enter Hydra, a warehouse for devs

Get your cloud managed Hydra set-up in minutes. Building a unified, consistent data source is as easy as centralize, analyze, and scale

CENTRALIZE

Loading data is easy with with ETL, like Airbyte, with Hydra External Tables, or Postgres dump / restore.

ANALYZE

Use Hydra’s federated queries to select and join with External Tables across SaaS, data lake, and operational databases. Data outside a Hydra warehouse is still within reach. Also, check out Metabase an awesome Business Intelligence (BI) tool that's open source, cloud managed, and seamlessly integrates with Hydra.

SCALE

Grow storage and compute on Hydra's cloud instance without downtime. We handle the backups, disaster recovery, high availability, maintenance upgradges, while you focus on building and growing.
