Why TDengine?
AI-Ready Data Foundation
TDengine connects to sources like OPC, MQTT, and Kafka with built-in ETL for cleaning and transforming data. Its tree hierarchy, reusable templates, and rich metadata bring contextualization and standardization to your data and help you prepare your business for AI-driven innovation.
10x Performance at 10% Cost
TDengine is built for time-series data, with a specialized storage engine that outperforms general-purpose databases in data ingestion, querying, and compression. Its efficient architecture with automated tiered storage and S3 support minimizes data footprint and significantly reduces your storage costs.
From Raw Data to Real-Time Insight
TDengine supports standard SQL and a rich set of time-series functions, with a built-in stream processing engine for millisecond-level analytics. AI agent TDgpt enables forecasting and anomaly detection in a single SQL statement, powered by machine learning and time-series foundation models.
Open Ecosystem, Unlimited Connectivity
TDengine is built on an open-source core and integrates with a rich ecosystem of third-party BI, AI, and other products over open interfaces. It supports industrial protocols like MQTT and OPC, making it easy to unify data across systems and sites, and ensures you stay free to build and scale without vendor lock-in.
