DataLens is an open-source business intelligence and data visualization system originally developed and used as the primary BI tool at Yandex. It is deployed via Docker Compose and provides dashboards, SQL-based analytics, and reporting.

Use cases

• build interactive dashboards from sql databases
• self-host a business intelligence tool
• create reports and charts for company data
• visualize analytics data without paying for saas bi
• explore data with sql queries and visualizations
• replace proprietary bi platforms with an open-source alternative

When to choose

• you want a self-hosted, docker-based BI platform
• your team needs dashboards and reporting on top of SQL data sources
• you want a battle-tested tool proven at Yandex scale
• you prefer an Apache-2.0 licensed alternative to commercial BI

When to avoid

• you need a lightweight embedded charting library rather than a full BI platform
• you cannot run Docker or manage multi-container deployments
• you need extensive third-party integrations outside its supported connectors
• you want a fully managed service without self-hosting overhead
