Building privacy-first native app telemetry with Guilherme Oenning
Blog post from Tinybird
Guilherme Oenning, a software engineer with over 15 years of experience, founded Aptabase, a privacy-focused telemetry and analytics service for native app developers, after realizing the lack of open-source, privacy-first analytics tools for mobile and desktop apps. In building Aptabase, Guilherme chose Tinybird for its serverless ClickHouse® capabilities, which provided a scalable and easy-to-deploy analytics solution without the complexities of managing database infrastructure. Tinybird's platform, with features like Pipes and Materialized Views, allowed Guilherme to rapidly develop and deploy Aptabase while maintaining focus on product development. The open-source project offers SDKs for various programming languages, enabling developers to track app usage and enhance user privacy. Looking forward, Aptabase aims to expand its SDK offerings and introduce customizable dashboards, with strong community support playing a key role in its development. Tinybird has been instrumental in Aptabase's growth, offering a supportive community and technical capabilities that simplify data management and accelerate product development.
