A Backend for Analytics Dashboards — SQL Power on PostgreSQL
Dashboards live on aggregation — sums, group-bys, time buckets, and joins. Kolaybase gives you full PostgreSQL for those queries plus a REST API and access control, so you can ship metrics without standing up a separate analytics backend.
Real SQL aggregation
Use group-by, window functions, and date bucketing in PostgreSQL to compute the metrics your dashboard needs.
Views as endpoints
Define SQL views for complex metrics and read them through the REST API like any table.
Scoped access
Row-level security and roles ensure each user or tenant only sees their own analytics.
Own your data
Self-host on your infrastructure and keep analytics data under your control.
Daily active users via a view
create view daily_active as
select date_trunc('day', seen_at) as day,
count(distinct user_id) as dau
from events
group by 1;Frequently asked questions
- Can I build dashboards on Kolaybase?
- Yes. Full PostgreSQL means you can write aggregation queries and views, then read them through the REST API to power charts and metrics.
- How do I expose a complex metric to the frontend?
- Create a SQL view encapsulating the query, and it becomes available through the REST API just like a table, with access controlled by row-level security.
