LLMs + REST APIs = powerful combos. Here’s Claude Code querying a ~1BN row crypto dataset from QuestDB using plain SQL over HTTP. No SDKs, just curl. Clean pattern for real-time insights with minimal setup. Screenshot below. #QuestDB #LLM #SQL #RESTAPI #TimeSeries

Middle of a dashboard refresh is a bad time for GC. QuestDB sidesteps it with: * Off-heap memory * Memory-mapped partitions * Native C++/Rust in the hot path What you need. Where you need it. When you need it. questdb.com/docs/guides/...

Somewhere in a database... a lonely little row from 2017 still holds out for hope. QuestDB’s TTL helps old data move on. Listen, row, don't think of it as deletion... More like closure. We just need some time for ourselves (and our more recent data). questdb.com/docs/concept...

This is your database when you don’t use materialized views to pre-compute aggregates. Every dashboard refresh is like a hot iron to the foot. Save your DB('s feet)! Materialize your views. questdb.com/blog/materia...

A common typo: WAL log (Write-Ahead Log log) Or is it?! Write-Ahead Logs (WAL) actually do log twice. First to the WAL. Then to the DB. The more you know! 🌈

Asking an LLM for an exact price point is like asking a poet for your bank balance. You might get a moving response… But it won’t be right. “ETH price on March 8, 2022?” “Twas fair and volatile, sir.” Hmm... You'll need a database. questdb.com/blog/why-ai-...

Structured data is very sneaky! Just ask your favourite LLM. 1GB of text = ~250M tokens 1GB of structured trades = ~1B tokens That’s 4× the token cost for less semantic richness. Our new agentic friends have many capabilities, chewing structured data not among them. questdb.com/blog/why-ai-...

And that, kids, is how PHP made it into our codebase. A user on PHP hit a QuestDB 8.2.2 issue. We gave an immediate workaround, then @jerrinot.bsky.social shipped a permanent fix 11 days later—with a new PHP test runner for coverage on par with Python or Rust. Community collaboration FTW!
Screenshot from slack, showing Jaromir saying:

That's excellent news :tada:
I included a PHP test runner in the fix. So from now on PHP PDO has the same test coverage as we have for Python, Rust or C#. This should prevent future regressions.
Many thanks for your help: The report, reproducer and now the confirmation - it all helped greatly.

🚀 Got 500 devices sending data every 5 seconds? That's over 3 billion rows per year! While that might be a challenge for conventional databases, with QuestDB you can still get sub-second query results and snappy real-time dashboards.
