tellery/telleryWhat is tellery?
Tellery is a self-hosted business intelligence platform that lets data teams define metrics using SQL and share them through collaborative documents and dashboards. It provides a modern SQL editor with auto-complete, a rich-text editor with slash commands and markdown support, drag-and-drop dashboard building, real-time multiplayer collaboration, and the ability to import dbt models and sources. The platform connects to databases through officially supported and community-supported connectors. It runs via Docker Compose with PostgreSQL and Redis as dependencies, exposing the web UI on port 8000 and a connector service on port 50051. The project is licensed under Apache-2.0 and the latest release is v0.8.8 from August 2022.
