What is Parix?
What Parix is, who it is for, and what the managed TigerBeetle platform includes today.
Parix is a managed TigerBeetle platform for products that need a durable usage ledger, hard quota enforcement, and predictable infrastructure without operating TigerBeetle directly.
Who this is for
The current product is aimed at teams that:
- need a production-grade ledger for AI or usage-based products
- want fast, strongly consistent writes for balances and transfers
- do not want to run TigerBeetle, gateways, CDC transport, backups, and observability themselves
What Parix manages
The platform splits responsibility across a control plane and a data plane:
- Control plane: Cloudflare Workers, Better Auth, D1, KV, R2, Durable Objects, and workflows
- Data plane: TigerBeetle clusters, provider-local gateways, Cloudflare Tunnel connectors, CDC relay, and supporting services
- Operator surface: dashboard pages for cluster settings, backups, metrics, logs, and lifecycle workflows
Product shape today
Current product expectations from the repo:
- gateway-only access to TigerBeetle operations
- raw TigerBeetle protocol is not exposed as a public product surface
- multi-tenant deployment model with provider-aware routing
- current provider work centers on AWS and GCP
- backup artifacts are retained after database deletion
Explicit limitations
The docs reflect current implementation, not aspirational behavior:
- there is no broad public control-plane API surface yet
- restore from backup is not available yet
- point-in-time recovery is not available yet
- cross-region replication and multi-region HA are out of scope
- a dedicated product CLI is not shipped in this repository today
