What it is

The Timeplus Proton project describes a streaming SQL pipeline engine implemented as a single C++ binary. It targets stream processing, analytics, observability and AI, and is designed as an alternative to Flink/ksqlDB, powered by ClickHouse components. It emphasizes a single binary, no JVM, and the ability to run in Docker or directly on Mac/Linux.

How it works

Proton exposes SQL as the main interface for creating external streams (e.g., Kafka) and external tables (e.g., ClickHouse), along with materialized views and alerts. It supports streaming ingestion, multi-stream joins, incremental materialized views, and UDFs via Python/JS. It is described as being powered by ClickHouse engine and optimized with SIMD, operating without JVM or ZooKeeper dependencies.

Getting started

Install/start guidance appears in multiple places:

The deployment section shows a one-liner to install:

curl https://install.timeplus.com/oss | sh

Mac users can install via Homebrew:

brew install timeplus-io/timeplus/proton

Docker usage is shown:

docker run -d --pull always -p 8123:8123 -p 8463:8463 --name proton d.timeplus.com/timeplus-io/proton:latest

In the README, usage in the proton client and server is described, including starting the server with proton server and using proton client for the SQL shell.
