Connect Amazon RDS databases to Chartbrew and turn SQL queries, tables, joins, customer records, product events, finance data, and operational metrics into live dashboards.

What You Can Track
Use RDS MySQL or RDS PostgreSQL data to report on the business entities, events, and KPIs already stored in your production database.
Track order totals, paid revenue, refunds, invoices, and customer value from relational tables.
Chart signups, activated users, accounts, teams, and retention signals over time.
Report on tickets, jobs, tasks, shipments, bookings, or internal workflow states.
Turn event tables into usage, feature adoption, and engagement dashboards.
Create KPI cards and tables from joins, filters, counts, sums, and calculated fields.
Use filter variables to reuse RDS dashboards across clients, tenants, or accounts.
How It Works
The Amazon RDS workflow is built around a source connection, reusable datasets, scheduled refreshes, and shareable dashboards.
Add your RDS PostgreSQL or RDS MySQL host, database, port, user, password, and SSL options in Chartbrew.
Use your schema, tables, columns, and joins to decide which reporting datasets should power the dashboard.
Write queries for KPIs, trends, breakdowns, and tables that can be reused across dashboards and clients.
Publish dashboards, embed charts, and send scheduled snapshots to keep stakeholders aligned.
Why Chartbrew for Amazon RDS
Chartbrew keeps reporting close to your source of truth while giving stakeholders dashboards, snapshots, embeds, and AI-assisted dataset building.
Use Chartbrew as a reporting layer on top of Amazon RDS without exporting tables into a separate spreadsheet workflow.
Build datasets from tables, fields, joins, and query results so charts stay grounded in the structure of your data.
Use Chartbrew AI to draft dataset ideas and query starting points when you want to move faster from schema to chart.
Keep dashboards up to date with automatic refresh schedules for daily, weekly, monthly, or operational reporting.
Share dashboards, embedded reports, and snapshots without giving every stakeholder direct database access.
Place database metrics beside API, analytics, product, customer, payment, and project management data.
