## Description

Aiven is an open source data platform company founded in Helsinki in 2016. It helps developers and engineering teams build data-intensive applications and production AI without the operational burden of managing infrastructure. The platform brings together managed open source services across major cloud providers, including Apache Kafka for streaming, PostgreSQL and MySQL for relational databases, ClickHouse for analytics, OpenSearch for search and retrieval, and Valkey for caching. Aiven also offers DataHub for data context and governance, plus Aiven Runtime for running applications and AI agents alongside data services.

Teams can choose a cloud provider and region, then deploy services through Aiven’s console or API. Aiven manages operational tasks such as backups, security patching, upgrades, and scaling, while open standards help keep data and applications portable. The platform supports AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and bring-your-own-cloud deployments. Its offerings include free and developer tiers, paid plans, and tools such as a SQL Optimizer, PostgreSQL Playground, and Kafka Visualization. Aiven serves organizations from individual developers and startups to enterprises.
