Fast.BI is an end-to-end data development platform that consolidates the entire modern data stack into a unified experience. The core idea behind Fast.BI was to create a wrapper on top of popular data services - because all these services are autonomous and don't talk to each other naturally.
Fast.BI helps connect everything: with Fast.BI backend services, these tools connect and automate all flows seamlessly. Instead of managing multiple disconnected tools, Fast.BI provides a single-page application (SPA) architecture that integrates best-in-class open-source technologies with intelligent automation and enterprise-ready features.
- 🔄 Complete Data Pipeline: From data replication to visualization in one platform
- ⚡ Rapid Deployment: Get from zero to production-ready data pipelines in minutes, not weeks
- 🛠️ Built on Open Source: Leverages proven tools like Airbyte, dlthub, dbt-core(primerally), Airflow, and DataHub
- 🎯 Focus on Modeling: Spend time on data insights, not infrastructure management
- ☁️ Cloud Agnostic: Deploy anywhere - AWS, GCP, Azure, or on-premises (Microservices based)
Fast.BI acts as an intelligent orchestration and automation layer on top of industry-standard open-source tools:
| Component | Technology | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Data Replication | Airbyte/dlthub | Move data from sources to destinations |
| Data Transformation | dbt Core | Transform and model your data |
| Data Quality/Tests | Re_Data(dbt) | Set your bussines data test on data model |
| Orchestration | Apache Airflow | Schedule and manage workflows |
| Governance | DataHub | Catalog and govern your data assets |
| Visualization | Lightdash/Superset | Explore and visualize insights |
| Development | VSCode (code-server) | Browser-based data modeling IDE |
If you're a data enthusiast who doesn't want to spend time learning DevOps to prepare and build data infrastructure, Fast.BI is exactly for you. Perfect for:
- Data Engineers who want to focus on data modeling instead of infrastructure management
- Data Analysts who need quick access to integrated data without complex setup
- Data Scientists who want to spend time on analysis, not on building data platforms
When you're just starting with data, teams are usually small and handle many responsibilities. Most teams don't have extensive knowledge in Kubernetes or Docker world, so this platform helps significantly:
- Teams without dedicated DevOps resources
- Organizations needing rapid data platform deployment
- Groups focused on data insights rather than infrastructure complexity
Most enterprises have a huge history with data, and all data is often shaped in legacy formats - old running data pipelines, cubes, etc. When enterprise teams want to start modernizing their data stack, they can start with Fast.BI:
- Open technology without limitations - adapt it for your needs
- Legacy data modernization - bridge the gap between old and new systems
- Scalable architecture that grows with enterprise requirements
The complete open-source data development platform including:
- Integrated data pipeline management
- Automated dbt project initialization
- Web-based data modeling environment
- Comprehensive monitoring and observability
- Data quality and governance tools
Repository: fast-bi
A specialized Airflow package available on PyPI that provides flexible execution strategies for dbt workloads across different environments.
Features:
