Cloudflare Basin is now generally available

View as MarkdownAgent setup

Basin, formerly the Cloudflare Data Platform, is now generally available. Basin brings an end-to-end analytics platform to the Developer Platform, enabling you to collect data from a variety of sources, such as apps, infrastructure, devices, and other Cloudflare services, then query it to answer analytical questions.

Basin Pipelines

Basin Pipelines, formerly Cloudflare Pipelines, ingests events from Workers, HTTP endpoints, and Cloudflare Logpush. It transforms events with SQL and ingests them into Iceberg tables or files on R2. With Basin Pipelines you can:

  • Ingest application and device events through HTTP endpoints or Workers bindings.
  • Filter and reshape Cloudflare logs before storing them as Iceberg tables, Parquet, or JSON.
  • Catch schema mismatches with typed bindings and investigate dropped events in the dashboard.

Basin Catalog

Basin Catalog, formerly R2 Data Catalog, manages and automatically maintains Apache Iceberg tables ↗︎ to keep them fast, cost-efficient, and accessible to any compatible query engine. With Basin Catalog you can:

  • Connect DuckDB, Spark, Snowflake, or PyIceberg to the same tables.
  • Maintain growing tables with compaction, snapshot expiration, and manifest optimization.
  • Share analytical data across tools and clouds without paying egress fees.

Basin SQL

Basin SQL, formerly R2 SQL, is a serverless, distributed SQL engine for querying large Apache Iceberg tables in Basin Catalog without managing or scaling compute. With Basin SQL you can:

  • Summarize and rank data with standard and approximate aggregates, grouping sets, and window functions.
  • Combine and inspect datasets with joins, subqueries, common table expressions, set operations, schema discovery, and EXPLAIN.
  • Transform strings, timestamps, JSON, and complex values with more than 190 functions.
