About Redash

Redash connects to SQL, NoSQL, big data and API sources such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redshift, BigQuery and MongoDB. Its browser-based SQL editor includes schema browsing, click-to-insert and reusable snippets.

Query results can be turned into visualisations and arranged on drag-and-drop dashboards that refresh on a schedule and can be shared with a team or publicly. It also offers alerts, an API and user management. It is open source and suits teams that want shared queries and dashboards on a server they run.

Strengths

  • Connects to a wide range of SQL, NoSQL and API sources
  • Collaborative SQL editor with schema browser and snippets
  • Scheduled dashboard refresh and alerts
  • Open source with no lock-in

Limitations

  • Needs a server to host it
  • Most useful for SQL-literate users
