DataHub in action
One place for all your data
Find, understand, and govern your data in a single view. Connect sources, discover assets, and trace lineage across your entire stack.
Open Source, Fully Managed
Stop compromising on your data catalog
Most data catalogs give you two options: pay steep per-seat fees for a managed SaaS, or self-host and take on the operational burden yourself.
Aiven for DataHub runs on the same managed PostgreSQL, Apache Kafka®, and OpenSearch® infrastructure we already operate at scale. You get the ease of a SaaS platform with the predictable pricing of open source - no per-user fees, no infrastructure to manage.

We handle the plumbing
Your metadata, safely stored
We take care of the databases that store your metadata - PostgreSQL, Kafka, and OpenSearch. Everything stays safe and available, even during updates or restarts.
Decoupled stateless core
We run DataHub's metadata service as a stateless component, separate from storage. You never lose data during application restarts, and the system stays simple to operate.
Production-ready in minutes
Skip the manual setup. We've already configured the connections between DataHub and its underlying services, so you get a production-ready environment in minutes.
Security built in
Your metadata is encrypted at rest and in transit across every component. We protect it with the same security standards we apply to all Aiven services.
Private network access
Keep your metadata off the public internet. With VPC peering, you connect DataHub directly to your existing cloud network.
