Data platform · included with every plan
Your data, finally visible. Right next to your site.
Every site you host here already has a database. veldhost Manage lets you open it: browse tables, ask questions in SQL, load spreadsheets and other databases into a warehouse of your own, wire pipelines between them, and put the results on a dashboard your whole team can read. MariaDB and PostgreSQL, both first-class, in the EU.
Who this is for
Three kinds of team. One workbench.
You have the data. You just can’t see it.
Your shop or app writes to a database on a server you rent, and getting a number out of it means SSH, a client and a query you wrote once. Move the site or just the database to us — free, checked table by table — and open it in a browser instead.
Move a site or a database →A warehouse without a second vendor.
MariaDB or PostgreSQL warehouses on dedicated capacity, gigabyte imports straight into EU storage, pipelines that compile to SQL, scheduled jobs with a run ledger, dashboards per team — and a trust centre your procurement can read. Limits are published; more is a conversation, not a ticket.
Request a Business quote →Hosting first. Answers when you want them.
Nothing here is required. Your site runs as it always has — and the day you wonder which products sold last month or where visitors came from, the answer is one tab away in the same dashboard, with no analyst and nothing to install. Starter already includes the Databases workbench and Warehouse XS — 2 databases and 5 GB of your own.
See plans →01 / DATABASES
Browse and query every site database — safely.
Open the Databases page and every database your sites run on is there, MariaDB and PostgreSQL alike: tables, columns, sample rows and a SQL editor. Every query runs as a separate read-only login inside a read-only transaction, so nothing you type can change your live site. Save the queries you keep coming back to; everyone on your account sees them.
- Read-only by design — SELECT, WITH, SHOW and EXPLAIN, one statement at a time
- Up to 1,000 rows and 30 seconds per query as the standard offer; more on request
- Saved queries shared with your team, results exported as CSV or Excel
- The same workbench through the API and MCP with an opt-in data scope
02 / WAREHOUSE
A database that is yours to write to.
Create warehouse databases beside your sites — MariaDB or PostgreSQL, your choice per database. Load them from a CSV, a gzipped export or a Parquet file up to a gigabyte, uploaded straight into EU object storage and typed column by column before a single row is written. Or move a whole MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL database to us and keep working on it here.
- Your own warehouse container with 1 GB of memory and up to 10 databases in it
- CSV import picks the narrowest type that fits and refuses silent corruption
- Writable editor: INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and DDL — destructive statements confirmed first
- Whole-database migration in, with row counts compared table by table
03 / JOBS & PIPELINES
From raw tables to reporting tables, on a schedule.
A pipeline is SQL you can read: CREATE OR REFRESH TABLE … AS SELECT … from your site databases into a warehouse table. The platform derives the graph and lineage from it, previews the first rows before anything is written, and rebuilds or upserts each table on schedule. Jobs put pipelines, dashboard refreshes, SQL steps and notifications in order, run them on a schedule or a trigger, and keep a ledger of every run.
- Pipelines are plain SQL files — graph and lineage derived by the server, preview first
- Scheduled, manual or chained jobs with ordered steps, conditions and a run history
- Email and webhook notifications when a run finishes or fails
- Compute time metered per run and shown before you schedule anything
04 / DASHBOARDS
Charts your whole team can open.
Dashboards turn any table — a site’s database or a warehouse — into time series, bars, stats, gauges, tables and pies on a 24-column grid, with a time picker, variables and auto-refresh. Grafana-like, with nothing to install and nothing to host. Every dashboard keeps its last 20 versions and exports as a file that imports into any account.
- Six panel types, time macros that behave identically on MariaDB and PostgreSQL
- Variables, presets from the last 5 minutes to 90 days, ranges carried in the URL
- Viewers see dashboards without ever seeing raw rows
- Up to 50 dashboards and 24 panels each as the standard offer
The standard offer
Published limits. No surprise bills.
Databases, a warehouse and dashboards are included in every plan; what differs is the warehouse tier — XS on Starter, S on Pro, M on Business. These are the numbers each tier gets; a larger customer who needs more is accommodated on request, for a fee, on both engines.
| Included | Need more? | |
|---|---|---|
| Queries | Up to 1,000 rows and 30 s each · 2,000 a day | Raised per account |
| Warehouse | Starter XS: 512 MB · 5 GB · 2 databases — Pro S: 1 GB · 25 GB · 10 — Business M: 2 GB · 75 GB · 20 · MariaDB or PostgreSQL | Warehouse L (4 GB · 200 GB · 50 databases) and extra disk on request |
| File imports | CSV, .csv.gz or Parquet up to 1 GB, straight into EU object storage | Raised per account |
| Pipelines & jobs | Up to 20 of each · runs up to 15 min and 500,000 rows · schedules from 5 min · 30 (Starter) or 120 (Pro) job minutes a month included | Business: 60 min, 5 million rows, every minute, 600 minutes included |
| Dashboards | Up to 50 · 24 panels each · refresh from 30 s | Raised per account |
| Where it runs | Falkenstein and Nuremberg, Germany — servers we operate | Dedicated server on Business |
Starter includes Warehouse XS (2 databases, 5 GB); Pro Warehouse S, Business Warehouse M — a bigger tier is one conversation away. Job runs above the included minutes are metered by compute time, shown before you schedule.
Good questions
What people ask before they open the first table.
Can a query break my live site?
No. Every query against a site database runs as a separate read-only login, inside a read-only transaction, and only SELECT, WITH, SHOW, EXPLAIN, DESCRIBE and VALUES are accepted. Anything that writes, locks, sleeps or reads files is refused before it is queued. Only your own warehouse databases are writable — and there, deleting or dropping asks you to confirm first.
My site runs on a VPS somewhere else. Can I still use this?
The workbench works on databases hosted at veldhost. Bring the site over — free, on a preview address before anything switches — or bring only the database: MySQL, MariaDB or PostgreSQL, pulled over SSH or uploaded, with row counts compared table by table. A CSV export can also go straight into a warehouse.
Do I need to know SQL?
To browse tables, import a spreadsheet or open a dashboard, no. Pipelines are SQL — CREATE OR REFRESH TABLE … AS SELECT … — so building reporting tables does take some, but a connected AI assistant can write a pipeline for you and check that it compiles (create_pipeline over MCP), and can write and run read-only queries for your own questions.
Where does the data live?
In Germany, on servers we operate ourselves — the same infrastructure as your site. Imports land in EU object storage we run; nothing is processed outside the EU, and the processor agreement, sub-processor list and security questionnaire are on the trust centre.
Who on my team can see what?
Owners, admins and developers can browse and query raw rows. Viewers and billing roles see dashboards only — never a table. The API and MCP need a token with the opt-in data scope; no existing token gains it by itself.
What does it cost?
Nothing extra on any plan: Databases, dashboards and a warehouse at your plan's tier are included — Warehouse XS on Starter (2 databases, 5 GB), S on Pro (10 databases, 25 GB), M on Business (20 databases, 75 GB). Every tier comes with job minutes a month; runs above them are metered by the compute time they use, and the meter is shown before you schedule anything. Need a bigger warehouse or more disk? Ask — we quote from your real numbers.
