Kinetica

Kinetica is a GPU-accelerated, real-time analytical database that unifies relational (SQL), vector, graph, geospatial, time-series and OLAP workloads in a single query engine, aimed at applications needing millisecond-latency analytics over continuously streaming data. Grown out of a GPU-accelerated geospatial and temporal engine built for U.S. Army Intelligence (INSCOM) in 2009, it is deployed today as the retrieval and reasoning layer behind AI agents and LLM-powered systems. The database is consumed through a POST-only JSON REST API (/execute/sql, /show/table, /insert/records/json, /filter/*, /aggregate/*, /match/graph and friends) served from each deployment on port 9191, plus first-party client libraries for Python, Java, C++, C#, JavaScript/Node.js and Go, JDBC/ODBC drivers, and the KiSQL command-line client. For agents, Kinetica publishes an A2A agent card and an installable Agent Skills package on its documentation host, and ships Toolbelt — an OAuth-protected hosted MCP server exposing toolbelt_* tools for SQL, vector search, graph traversal, schema introspection and ingest-job inspection.

Kinetica publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Database, Analytics, gpu-acceleration, Real-Time Analytics, and Vector Search.

Kinetica’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 27 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/kinetica: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

    (/admin/rebalance, /admin/show/cluster/operations). Authentication is HTTP Basic or an OAuth 2.0 bearer token. The base
    URL is deployment-specific — clusters are self-hosted or provisioned through Kinetica Cloud — so there is no single public
    production host.
