Products that do what An Open-Source Collaborative Database Development Tool does
A couple of years ago, we had an interesting idea. When a development team within an organization consists of around 10 members or fewer, controlling the risks associated with database changes might be achieved through trust and real-time communication. However, as the team grows, the responsibilities within the team become more specialized. Imagine a scenario where different branches of the business exist, each with its own set of developers, team leads, testers, testing leads, DBAs, and more. Relying solely on traditional communication methods becomes increasingly challenging when it comes…

Two and a half years ago, Edward, Dylan, and I started this journey to build a new database for an old problem that has long plagued the infrastructure software industry. Today, we are proud to announce that this database, TiDB, is production ready. Abraham Lincoln once said, ‘the best way to predict the future is to create it.’ The future we predicted 771 days ago we now have created, because of the hard work and dedication of not just every member of our team, but also every contributor, user, and partner in our open source community. Today, we celebrate and pay gratitude to the power of…

Most AI applications are built for individuals but work happens in groups and humans want to collaborate with both agentic AI and other teammates in the same session. We created Hybrid Groups for that purpose. In Hybrid Groups, agents join group chats as virtual team members in Slack and GitHub. They participate in group conversations, proactively contribute when needed and perform actions on behalf of individual users, like managing your calendar for meeting suggestions or updating your todo list without sharing access to your private resources to the group. The project is open-source at…

Hey HN, A few friends and I have spent the past 6 years or so developing a way to write data transformation code in a way that can easily adapt to changes in logic or data elements both upstream and downstream without the need major refactoring, regression testing, or re-orchestration. We decided to open source the project about two months ago and published a CLI tool after we realized how big of a task it was to take on incumbents like stored procedures, dbt, and psyspark. It is early days for our community and we are looking to grow and engage with others to poke holes and contribute…

Scaling data teams today means dealing with the complexity of the modern data stack. While DBT has become a core tool for transforming raw data into structured, analytics-ready tables, most teams are using it in ways that lead to chaos: duplicated models, inconsistent metrics, and inefficient SQL that directly impacts cloud spend. The real issue isn’t with DBT itself—it’s in how it’s applied across teams. Here’s the typical setup: Finance defines a revenue model, Marketing calculates customer lifetime value, and Product defines churn. All in DBT, but all with slightly different logic,…

Hey HN, We've just launched our team collaboration platform where we're bringing together all the important tools under one app. We've been frustrated in the past with tools which had a huge disconnect between projects and chat. It always inevitably leads to teams using external chat apps for "project management" and then abandoning the main tools altogether. We're creating tools we hope teams will stick with. Super integrated Chat. Convert comments to tasks and have them auto added to project boards. Automations to help massively reduce burden on the team. Workflows, Time-Off and so much…

I am just getting ready to release TeamPostgreSQL 1.05. You can check it out here: http://www.teampostgresql.com It is a web-based admin interface for PostgreSQL, with a lot of work put into making it a user-friendly and productive way to work with the database. Hopefully this makes it ideal for when different people need to access the database, including developers, testers, support staff, managers etc. This will be the first release after several months of beta testing and user feedback. Some feature highlights: * Pretty neat web interface (GWT powered AJAX GUI) * Comprehensive database…

Hello HN! These last few months I've been working on my first open source project: an embedded database written in pure-go. That took me some months, as I had to learn how to deal with such large packages. Until then, all packages I had made were quite small an did not require much. I usually did not have to worry about things like allocation optimization and instance pools until This project. It started when I wanted to make a port of a tool to a TUI environment. I'm actually used to working with TUIs in golang, so that was my language of choice. The tool I wanted to port is written in…

Hello Hacker News community! I'm currently working in financial risk management within the banking sector, and I began my career as a Data Science specialist. For quite some time, my friend and I have been developing a small pet project just for fun. This tool has repeatedly helped us save time when testing various hypotheses and machine learning models. The core idea is to combine different scripts—created in various programming languages and virtual environments—within a minimalist graphical interface. Whether you're building models, running a local neural network, or sending requests to…

This is an app to easily manage a workload of multiple projects and to ease collaboration between teams. We built it on weekends whilst running our agency and it’s still very much in development. I’m posting it because I’m interested on what HNers think we should focus on next: * A ‘client view’ of each project? * Project level permissions to allow freelancers to access particular projects? * Estimates vs Actuals – see how they compare and use this data to predict future delivery times. You can sign up for a free lifetime account at the moment. Please comment if you have any feedback or…
