24 alternatives to Marple

Hi HN! I’m Nero from Marple, and we build time series tooling for Aerospace & Automotive. In 2020, we launched our first product: a sort of Grafana on steroids designed for high performance analysis. After integrating with a lot of different TS databases, we kept running into their design limits when trying to deliver the best performance & UX to our users. That’s why we are launching Marple DB today (https://www.marpledata.com/marple-db). Marple DB transforms measurements files (CSV, MAT, HDF5, TDMS, …) into a queryable lakehouse. We designed for extreme ingestion…

Marple is an interactive time series visualization tool designed for engineers to organize and analyze sensor data without coding. It handles measurement files from experiments and tests, supporting high-frequency… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

    Hi HN! I'm Nero, founder of a Belgian startup called Marple (marpledata.com). We make software for engineers to analyse time series data. Think about data from physical systems like cars, airplanes, drones, ... and smaller subsystems. We see that lot of engineers start by doing sanity checks on their data. These are quite simple - but take quite some time. That's why we starting thinking about building CI/CD for time series data. The current version is quite MVP, but is mostly bug-free. We're gathering feedback from people before we expand functionality. So let me know how it works for…

    Hi HN! I’m Alex from Parabola (https://parabola.io). Parabola is a visual programming tool for creating functional data flows that everyone can use. It’s entirely drag-and-drop, handles data sizes much larger than a traditional spreadsheet, calculates everything live, and can run your flows on a schedule of your choosing. I used to work in strategy consulting, doing data analytics for SMBs and Fortune 500 companies. The amount of time wasted on menial tasks was astounding. Things like cleaning data, generating custom reports, creating human workflows to solve shortcomings in third…

    Trifle is an open-source time-series analytics library that aggregates nested counters instead of storing raw events. All in the database you already have. After rebuilding it twice over 10 years, it now tracks ~1B events a day at my day job. It started in 2015 as my own Rails APM. I plugged into ActiveSupport::Notifications, got a few small users, and one bigger one whose scraping app broke everything. That sparked the core idea: aggregate counters into pre-defined time buckets, so a single write increments multiple buckets at once. The APM eventually faded away without much traction. Later…

    Hello HN. I've always found writing data visualisation scripts boring and repetitive in data science workflows earlier in my career, so I built this tool to automate it. The available methods are based on my experience in econometrics where histograms and scatterplots were the starting points to check data distributions. The link is to the documentation and the app is freely available at https://visprex.com, and if you're curious about the implementation it's open source at https://github.com/visprex/visprex. I'd appreciate any comments and feedback!

    I have been working on SQL Explorer, an open source, Django-based reporting and query tool for (gulp!) almost ten years. It's a tool that fits just right for me and many others, and I love and use almost every day. Write SQL, share results, do some analysis, get insight. No surprises. A live demo instance is here (no login or anything required): https://demo.sqlexplorer.io/ And here's a fairly unprofessional, but very enthusiastic, video tour: https://sql-explorer.s3.amazonaws.com/Sql+Explorer+5.mp4 The UI is constrained enough that there's very little to learn,…

    Hi HN, I started building Datastripes as part of my thesis, trying to answer a simple question: How can non-technical teams turn raw data into insights without relying on developers or BI tools? What began as research has now grown into a working product, built by a small team, focused on solving that exact problem. Datastripes is a no-code platform for creating dashboards and data visualizations in minutes: no SQL, no setup, no friction. What it does: Connects to CSVs, Google Sheets, or APIs Drag-and-drop dashboard builder Shareable via public links or embed Fully browser-based We’re…
