What is DoubleCloud?
DoubleCloud is a managed open-source data analytics platform for engineering teams. It bundles ClickHouse, Kafka, Airflow, no-code ELT, and data visualization into a single integrated stack. The platform handles routine maintenance like updates, backups, auto-scaling, and monitoring so engineers can focus on product development. It runs on AWS or Google Cloud.
