Tyler Hannan

Three decades of databases, distributed systems and developer communities. These are the talks, videos and things I've said out loud.

About

:) DESCRIBE tyler;

now	Storyteller at ClickHouse
previously	Macrometa · Hasura · Fauna · Elastic · Basho · many others
focus	databases, distributed systems, community
speaks_at	conferences, meetups, release calls

I've spent my career where databases meet the people who use them: building developer communities, telling product stories, and explaining why the internals matter. I tell stories about the software other people build.

Run your own

Every query on this page is live. ▶ run sends it to play.clickhouse.com, ClickHouse's free public playground, with this site's tables (talks, demos, photos, posts) attached. Edit any of them, or point one at the playground's own data, like every public GitHub event since 2011:

:) SELECT event_type, formatReadableQuantity(count()) AS events FROM github_events GROUP BY event_type ORDER BY count() DESC LIMIT 5;

That's about 11 billion rows. Press ▶ run, then try SHOW TABLES to see what else is there.
