Show HN: Trilogy Studio, open-source browser-based SQL editor and visualizer

Show HN: Trilogy Studio, open-source browser-based SQL editor and visualizer SQL-first analytic IDE; similar to Redash&#x2F;Metabase. Aims to solve reuse&#x2F;composability at the code layer with modified syntax, Trilogy, that includes a semantic layer directly in the SQL-like language.<p>Status: experiment; feedback and contributions welcome!<p>Built to solve 3 problems I have with SQL as my primary iterative analysis language:<p>1. Adjusting queries&#x2F;analysis takes a lot of boilerplate. Solve with queries that operate on the semantic layer, not tables. Also eliminates the need for CTEs.<p>2. Sources of truth change all the time. I hate updating reports to reference new tables. Also solved by the semantic layer, since data bindings can be updated without changing dashboards or queries.<p>3. Getting from SQL to visuals is too much work in many tools; make it as streamlined as possible. Surprise - solve with the semantic layer; add in more expressive typing to get better defaults;also use it to wire up automatic drilldowns&#x2F;cross filtering.<p>Supports: bigquery, duckdb, snowflake.<p>Links [1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;trilogydata.dev&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;trilogydata.dev&#x2F;</a> (language info)<p>Git links: [Frontend] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;trilogy-data&#x2F;trilogy-studio-core" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;trilogy-data&#x2F;trilogy-studio-core</a> [Language] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;trilogy-data&#x2F;pytrilogy" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;trilogy-data&#x2F;pytrilogy</a><p>Previously: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=44106070">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=44106070</a> (significant UX&#x2F;feature reworks since) <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=42231325">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=42231325</a>

Show HN: Pipeflow-PHP – Automate anything with pipelines even non-devs can edit

Show HN: Pipeflow-PHP – Automate anything with pipelines even non-devs can edit Hello everyone,<p>I’ve been building [Pipeflow-php](<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;marcosiino&#x2F;pipeflow-php" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;marcosiino&#x2F;pipeflow-php</a>), a PHP pipeline engine to automate anything — from content generation to backend and business logic workflows — using core modular stages and custom implemented stages (that can do anything), with the key power of using an easy to reason and read XML to define the pipeline logic, which every actor in a company, even non developers, can understand, maintain and edit.<p>It’s a *headless engine*: no UI is included, but it&#x27;s designed to be easily wired into any backend interface (e.g. WordPress admin, CMS dashboard, custom panels), so *even non-developers can edit or configure the logic*.<p>It surely needs improvements, more core stages to be implemented and more features, but i&#x27;m already using it on two websites i&#x27;ve developed.<p>In future I plan to port it in other languages too.<p>Feedback (and even contributions) are appreciated :)<p>---<p>Why I built it<p>I run a site which every day, via a cron job:<p>- automatically generates and publish coloring pages using complex logics and with the support of the generative AI,<p>- picks categories and prompts based on logic defined in a pipeline,<p>- creates and publishes WordPress posts automatically, every day, without any human intervention.<p>All the logic is defined in an XML pipeline that&#x27;s editable via wordpress admin panel (using a wordpress plugin I&#x27;ve developed, which also adds some wordpress related custom stages to Pipeflow). A non-dev (like a content manager) can adjust this automatic content generation logic, for example by improving it, or by changing the themes&#x2F;categories during holidays — without touching PHP.<p>---<p>What Pipeflow does<p>- Define pipelines in *fluent PHP* or *simple, easy understandable XML (even by non developers), directly from your web app admin pages*<p>- Use control-flow stages like `If`, `ForEach`, `For`<p>- Execute pipelines manually, via cron, or on any backend trigger which adapts to your business logic<p>- Build your own UI or editor on top (from a simple text editor to a node based editor which outputs a compatible XML-based configuration to feed to pipeflow)<p>- Reuse modular “stages” (core and custom ones) across different pipelines

Show HN: ServiceRadar – open-source Network Observability Platform

Show HN: ServiceRadar – open-source Network Observability Platform ServiceRadar is an open-source platform for distributed, secure network management and observability, scaling to 100k+ devices. Born from frustration with complex traditional NMS tools like Zabbix, it bridges legacy (SNMP&#x2F;syslog) and modern (gNMI, OTLP) protocols for cloud-native environments.<p>We built ServiceRadar to simplify monitoring hybrid telecom networks, evolving it into a Kubernetes-native solution with Helm and Docker support. It uses mTLS with SPIFFE&#x2F;SPIRE, NATS JetStream for event streaming (90M+ EPS), and SRQL for intuitive queries. Integrated with OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and CloudEvents, it fills the network visibility gap in CNCF’s application-focused observability stack.<p>We’re seeking early adopters to try our demo or deploy locally—no sign-up needed. Feedback on usability or contributions for new protocols would be awesome.<p>Quick Start: helm install serviceradar carverauto&#x2F;serviceradar or docker compose up -d<p>GitHub: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;carverauto&#x2F;serviceradar" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;carverauto&#x2F;serviceradar</a> (please star!)<p>Docs: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.serviceradar.cloud" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.serviceradar.cloud</a><p>Join our Discord or use GitHub Issues to share thoughts.
