Datastripes 2.0: 70x Speedup with WebAssembly analytical RDB
For years, no-code data analysis tools were limited by data size. Once you hit the "big data" threshold, workflows fell apart. But now, Datastripes can process and visualize up to 2GB of data entirely within your browser, thanks to a fundamental architectural shift: a new core engine built with WebAssembly (WASM).
The "Before": The Inevitable Limits of Pure JavaScript
Our original JavaScript engine was perfect for smaller datasets but struggled with larger ones due to single-threaded bottlenecks, memory overhead, and inefficient operations. A 200MB dataset could take over 45 seconds to process, and larger datasets often caused crashes.
The Breakthrough: A WASM-Powered Analytical Engine
WebAssembly (WASM) allowed us to rebuild our engine in C++ and compile it to run at near-native speeds in the browser. This new engine delivers:
The Results: Performance You Can Feel
The new engine delivers a 70x speedup on average, enabling complex operations like `$INNER JOIN$` on multi-GB datasets and near-instant dashboard refreshes. All computation happens locally, ensuring privacy and offline capabilities.
What This Means for You
With Datastripes, you can now analyze massive datasets securely, cost-free, and directly in your browser. No servers, no waiting—just powerful, uninterrupted workflows.
