Ingest your data into ClickHouse from day one
Backfill historical data, keep CDC in sync, handle schema changes, normalize messy data, and keep ClickHouse queries correct.
GlassFlow is an open-source stream processing engine designed for data ingestion and transformation from multiple sources into ClickHouse. GlassFlow comes with the following core functionalities:
- Stateless transformations: Powered by the expr expression engine, enabling flexible data transformations using helper functions and standard operators (e.g., removing null values or replacing missing timestamps).
- Stateful transformations: A built-in state store allows deduplication logic and temporal joins over configurable time windows.
- Filtering: Drop events you don’t want to ingest into ClickHouse before they reach your tables.
- Ingest only: Direct data transfer from many sources to ClickHouse without transformations.
- Metrics & OTEL: Built-in pipeline metrics with OpenTelemetry support.
- Dead-Letter-Queue: Keep pipelines running when faulty events occur. Inspect failed events and reprocess them later.
