Who uses Draxlr
Why Choose a Self-Hosted BI Tool?
Self-hosted business intelligence (BI) tools give you complete control over your data infrastructure. Unlike cloud-based BI platforms like Looker, Tableau Online, or Power BI Service, self-hosted solutions let you store sensitive data on your own servers, ensure compliance with internal security policies (HIPAA, GDPR), and customize deployments to fit your unique technical environment. For organizations in healthcare, finance, government, or any industry handling sensitive data, a self-hosted BI tool is often a requirement — not a preference.
Data sovereignty
Keep sensitive data inside your own infrastructure. No data leaves your network — ever. Your security and compliance policies apply directly to your BI layer.
Custom environments
Deploy inside your VPC, on-premise data center, or private cloud. Control networking, DNS, and firewall rules with predictable operations.
Compliance & governance
Audit logs, role-based access control, and table-level permissions help you work toward HIPAA, GDPR, and internal governance requirements out of the box.
Predictable costs
No per-seat pricing surprises. A flat monthly fee gives your entire team access to unlimited dashboards, queries, and automations — regardless of how many users you add.
Key Features of Draxlr as a Self-Hosted BI Solution
Everything you need to operate a modern BI platform, with the option to run it inside your own infrastructure.
Docker-Based Deployment for Self-Hosted BI
Draxlr is available as a self-hosted BI tool packaged in a lightweight Docker container. Deploy it on your own servers, inside a private cloud (VPC), or on-premise — with minimal configuration. Unlike cloud-only BI tools such as Looker or Power BI, Draxlr gives you full infrastructure control from day one, so your data never leaves your network.
Custom Development and Feature Extensions
Draxlr’s self-hosted BI solution supports custom development to fit your organization’s unique workflows. Need custom integrations with internal APIs, white-labeled dashboards for clients, or specialized reporting functionality? Our team offers hands-on support to extend the platform to your exact requirements — something most open-source self-hosted BI tools like Metabase or Redash don’t provide out of the box.
Use Custom AI Models in Your Self-Hosted BI Tool
Draxlr’s self-hosted BI platform lets you integrate any AI or LLM — including OpenAI, Claude, or your own fine-tuned models — to assist with natural language to SQL generation, data summarization, and analysis. Run AI-powered analytics entirely within your infrastructure, ensuring sensitive data stays private while your team gets conversational access to insights.
Audit Logs, Query History, and Compliance
Track every query, dashboard action, and user login with timestamped audit logs. Essential for organizations that need to meet HIPAA, GDPR, or internal compliance requirements. Self-hosting Draxlr means your audit trail stays on your servers — fully under your control.

Self-Hosted BI Tool FAQs
Answers to the most common questions about deploying and using a self-hosted business intelligence tool.
What is a self-hosted BI tool?
A self-hosted BI (business intelligence) tool is a data analytics platform that you install and run on your own servers or private cloud infrastructure, rather than relying on a vendor's cloud. This gives you complete control over where your data is stored, how it's accessed, and who can see it — making it ideal for organizations with strict data privacy, compliance, or sovereignty requirements.
How is Draxlr different from open-source self-hosted BI tools like Metabase or Redash?
While open-source tools like Metabase and Redash offer basic self-hosted BI capabilities, Draxlr provides a commercially supported platform with built-in AI-powered SQL generation, embedded analytics SDKs (React/Vue), white-labeling, dedicated support, and custom development — out of the box. You get enterprise-grade features without maintaining open-source forks or building missing functionality yourself.
How do I deploy Draxlr on my own server?
Draxlr is packaged as a lightweight Docker container. Our team handles the initial setup on your server, VPC, or on-premise infrastructure. The typical deployment takes less than a day, and we provide guidance on networking, SSL, database connectivity, and SSO configuration.
Do I get access to all Draxlr features with the Self-Hosted plan?
Yes. The self-hosted plan includes every core feature available in the cloud version: customizable dashboards, SQL and visual query builders, data visualizations, AI-powered query assistance, embedded analytics, scheduled reports, Slack/email alerts, automations, and role-based access control.
Which databases does Draxlr support?
Draxlr connects to 10+ databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, ClickHouse, Amazon Redshift, Google BigQuery, Snowflake, CockroachDB, and more. All connections are supported in both the cloud and self-hosted versions.
Can I use my own AI/LLM models with Draxlr?
Yes. Draxlr's self-hosted BI platform allows you to integrate any AI or LLM — including OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, or your own fine-tuned models — for natural language to SQL generation and data analysis. Your data stays entirely within your infrastructure.
Do you provide a white-label option?
Yes. Draxlr offers a white-labeled version so you can rebrand the platform with your own logo, colors, and domain — ideal for SaaS companies embedding analytics into their product or agencies offering BI services to clients.
Can I scale Draxlr on my own infrastructure?
Yes. Draxlr is designed to scale horizontally. Whether you need to support more concurrent users, larger datasets, or higher query throughput, you can scale your infrastructure to match your needs — with no per-seat pricing surprises.
What kind of support do I receive with the Self-Hosted plan?
The Self-Hosted plan includes technical support for installation, updates, training, custom API development, and troubleshooting. You also get priority chat support for day-to-day questions and a dedicated point of contact for enterprise deployments.
How do I handle updates and new features?
We release regular updates with new features, security patches, and performance improvements. You'll receive notifications when new Docker images are available, along with migration guides and changelog details. Updates are applied by pulling the latest container — no complex migration scripts required.
Is my data secure with Draxlr's self-hosted option?
Yes. Because you host Draxlr on your own servers, your data never leaves your network. Draxlr supports SSL/TLS encryption, role-based access control, table-level permissions, and audit logging — helping you meet the security requirements of frameworks like HIPAA, GDPR, and your own internal compliance policies.
Can I embed Draxlr dashboards into my own product?
Yes. Draxlr provides embedded analytics with React and Vue SDKs, domain whitelisting, and multi-tenant support. You can embed interactive dashboards, charts, and reports directly into your SaaS application or internal tools — all served from your own infrastructure.
