LyftData

Simple plans. Clear limits. No hidden ingest fees.

Pick the edition that matches your data footprint. Run LyftData in your own environment, keep control of the data plane, and scale ingest as volume grows.

Pricing is USD/month and applies per Server (one Server per license), based on daily ingest plus your Worker and Job envelope.

Community Edition note

DSL limits in Community Edition

Community Edition (including Community Plus) includes the core pipeline model, but some DSL components are licensed-only. These Inputs, Outputs, and Actions require an Enterprise tier (Small+).

Inputs

  • OAuth2/SaaS: Facebook Graph, HTTP Poll OAuth2 (via Credential Manager)
  • Cloud stores: S3, GCS, Azure Blob, WebDAV
  • Brokers: Kafka, MQTT, WebSocket, FTP
  • Enterprise DB/SQL: BigQuery, ClickHouse, Postgres, MySQL, SQL Server, ODBC, SQL
  • Ops: OpenTelemetry, journald, Windows Event Log

Outputs

  • Cloud stores: S3, GCS, Azure Blob, WebDAV
  • Brokers: Kafka, MQTT, WebSocket, FTP
  • Enterprise DB/SQL: BigQuery, ClickHouse, Postgres, MySQL, SQL Server, ODBC, SQL
  • Ops: OpenTelemetry, Splunk HEC, Syslog, Azure Monitor, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch

Actions

  • Script
  • JavaScript
  • Infer (AI)

Shared entitlements

What every edition includes

Core Pipeline Model

Jobs, Inputs, Actions, Outputs, Channels, and Worker-based execution as the foundation for all pipelines.

Full Visual Editor

A consistent UI for building, editing, and reviewing Jobs in every tier.

Run & Trace Simulator

Validate and inspect pipeline behavior with sample data before pushing changes into production.

Transformation Engine

Filtering, masking, normalization, parsing, and enrichment available across all editions, with advanced actions in licensed tiers.

Core connectors

Start with core local and HTTP connectors; licensed editions unlock cloud stores, brokers, and database connectors.

Upgrades

Upgrade without replatforming

Keep your pipelines; extend your capacity

Your Jobs, Workers, routing logic, and transformations stay the same across editions. When you outgrow a tier, you increase your ingest license and Worker envelope — not rebuild pipelines or migrate to a different product.

Same Server

One control plane across Community Edition, Community Plus, and Enterprise tiers.

Same Jobs

Identical Job definitions and Visual Editor experience as you scale.

Same Workers

Workers scale horizontally; you extend the licensed capacity, not the model.

Enterprise FAQ

Enterprise FAQ

How are ingest limits enforced?

Your license defines permitted daily ingest. The Server enforces those caps so pipelines cannot exceed licensed throughput.

Do licenses apply per Server?

Yes — licenses are per Server (one Server per license). Limits are expressed as daily ingest volume plus the permitted Worker and Job envelope on that Server.

Do upgrades require replatforming?

No. Jobs, Workers, routing rules, and transformations all carry forward. Upgrading means increasing ingest capacity, not redesigning pipelines.

Where does LyftData run?

LyftData is self-managed inside your infrastructure — cloud, VPC, on-prem, or hybrid. Your data plane remains under your control.

Need guidance

Not sure which tier fits your volume?

We can help map your current ingest, routing patterns, and retention goals to the right tier — or start you on Community Edition and grow from there.
