BlackStarDB Big Data, Tiny Bills.

Store massive amounts of data in Azure and maintain a lightweight index for quick lookups. No extra infrastructure or hidden fees—just straightforward cost savings.

The Challenge

Traditional big data solutions often come with hefty price tags and complex infrastructure requirements.
Companies frequently overpay for features they don't need.
They wrestle with complicated setups that require dedicated teams to maintain.

The result? Bloated budgets and unnecessary complexity for what should be straightforward data storage and retrieval.

How BlackStarDB Helps

BlackStarDB revolutionizes how you handle large-scale data storage and retrieval. Our approach combines the power of simplicity of Azure Storage capabilities with an intelligent indexing system that keeps your costs low and your queries fast.

Lightweight indexing that scales with your needs.
Pay only for what you use - transparent, usage-based pricing.
Simple deployment.
Go with Archive/Cold storage for primary data from the beginning.

Use Cases

Medical & Healthcare

Efficiently store and access massive patient records.

Forensics & Legal

Manage vast collections of case files, evidence data, and other documents with robust indexing and cost-effective long-term storage.

Dumps, logs, errors

Although there are log focused solutions, we provide capabilities that allows you analyzing various sorts of dumps or error logs by querying them with ease.

Simple, Transparent Pricing

We believe in keeping things simple and transparent. Start with our free tier and scale as you grow:

You pay the bill for Azure Storage and Functions.
We add our Usage-based pricing that mimics Azure Storage.
No hidden fees or complicated pricing tiers. We're fully Azure aligned.

How much do we add:

Write operations (per 10,000) the same as for the Archive tier.
Data storage prices (GB/month) the same as for the Hot archive.

Built for Engineers

BlackStarDB was designed with developers in mind. Our simple library makes it easy to integrate with your existing codebase, while providing powerful features for handling large-scale data.

Simple, intuitive API
Native async/await support
Strongly-typed client library
LINQ based queries

// Initialize the client with your Azure connection
using BlackStarDB;

var client = new BlackStarClient(connectionString);

// Store large data with an efficient index
await client.StoreAsync(
    key: "patient-123",
    data: largeDataset,
    index: new SearchIndex[] {
        new("name", patient.Name),
        new("date", patient.AdmissionDate)
    }
);

// Retrieve data using the index
var results = await client
    .SearchAsync()
    .Where("date", ">", DateTime.Today.AddDays(-7))
    .Take(100)
    .ExecuteAsync();
