Hydra - Open-Source Columnar Postgres

Hacker News

hi hn, hydra ceo here hydra is an open-source extension that adds columnar tables to Postgres for efficient analytical reporting. With Hydra, you can analyze billions of rows instantly without changing code. demo video (5 min): https://youtu.be/1yzxgb0Oyrw github repo: https://github.com/hydradatabase/hydra For 1.0 GA release, aggregate queries are over *60% faster* than Hydra beta due to aggregate vectorization. Spatial indexes (gin, gist, spgist, and rum indexes) and pg_hint_plan are now enabled for performance optimization. postgres is great, but aggregates can take minutes to hours to return results on large data sets. long-running analytical queries hog database resources and degrade performance. use hydra to run much faster analytics on postgres without changing code. for testing, try the hydra free tier to create a column postgres instance on the cloud. https://dashboard.hydra.so/signup
