Hydrolix

Hydrolix is a real-time log analytics and observability platform built as a streaming data lake: it decouples ingest, storage, and compute so teams can retain full-fidelity log and event data cost-effectively for 15+ months while still serving low-latency queries and dashboards. Data is ingested through an HTTP Streaming API, Amazon Kinesis / Data Firehose, S3 autoingest, and OpenTelemetry, then queried with the ClickHouse SQL dialect via a Query API, MCP server, and connectors for Grafana, Trino, Spark/Databricks, and Splunk. Hydrolix deploys in the customer's own cloud (BYOC on AWS/GCP/Kubernetes) and exposes a Config API, Stream API, and Query API, a hdxcli command-line tool, and an official Model Context Protocol server.

Hydrolix publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Observability, Log Analytics, Data Lake, and Streaming.

Hydrolix’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, signup flow, CLI, authentication, and 12 more developer resources.
