This looks great but was there a reason for going with Postgres over something purpose built for analytics like Clickhouse? I am seriously considering building a similar tool for our platform as the cost of Mixpanel/Amplitude is cost prohibitive at our scale. We had to move off Google Analytics and run our own Matomo server, and it brings MariaDB to a grinding halt.
In any case, will be looking closer at this. Looks very interesting. Thanks.
- gorkemcetin 7y agoHave you tried Countly then? It's a serious contender to Mixpanel/Amplitude, self hosted and backend is MongoDB (if that is something you are interested in).
- james_impliu 7y agoWe have actually integrated Clickhouse already for this reason. We started with Postgres as it works well for smaller volumes, but we have this integration in a paid version.
- leonardteo 7y agoThanks James. I'll keep this in mind and might shoot you guys an email. Cheers and good luck!
