Kamu
Kamu is a data fabric for accountable data supply chains and collaborative processing across organizational boundaries. Its free Kamu CLI manages and verifiably processes structured data, and the maker says it can be used without an account, credit card, or cloud subscription. Kamu records data history and transformation code so users can trace where datasets came from and verify how results were produced. SQL-based ETL pipelines can use processing engines including Flink, Spark, and DataFusion; ingestion options include Debezium, web polling, MQTT brokers, and blockchain logs. Datasets can be explored through an embedded SQL shell, Jupyter notebooks, an embedded web interface, and BI tools such as Apache Superset. Open Data Fabric formats and protocols enable exchange through conventional or decentralized storage. Kamu Node is the server counterpart, deployable as Kubernetes applications in a distributed environment. The CLI works on Linux, macOS, and Windows with WSL2. Documentation cautions that Kamu is not suited to high-frequency, high-volume cases, though it may suit insights derived from such data.
