About the technology

What is NocoDB?

NocoDB is a self-hostable, source-available no-code database platform under the Sustainable Use License. Teams can work with relational data through a spreadsheet-like interface and build applications on top; licence and edition boundaries are checked before use.

NocoDB connects to relational databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite and transforms them into a smart spreadsheet interface. Additionally, NocoDB provides programmatic access via APIs and enables integration with numerous other services like Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, or Zapier.

Features of NocoDB

  • Spreadsheet Interface

    Familiar operation like in Excel or Google Sheets with extensive functions for tables, fields, and records.
  • Various View Types

    Multiple view types such as table, gallery, form view, and Kanban view for different representations of your data.
  • Team Collaboration

    Work together on databases with collaboration features, access rights, and the ability to share views publicly or privately.
  • App Store for Automations

    Integration with chat services, email, storage systems, and the ability to create workflows and automations.
  • Programmatic Access

    Access your data via REST APIs, NocoDB SDK, and the ability to execute SQL queries directly in the user interface.
  • Schema Synchronization

    Synchronize schema changes made outside the NocoDB interface to keep your database up to date.
  • Audit Functionality

    Workspace audit logs require a suitable licensed self-hosted plan. Scope, retention and export are verified for the selected edition.
  • Support for Various Databases

    Compatibility with common relational databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite for flexible deployment options.
  • Flexible Authentication

    Various authentication methods with JWT, Social Auth, and fine-grained access control through roles and permissions.

Licence

Licensing Notice

NocoDB Community is governed by the Fair Code Sustainable Use License. Offering it as a hosted or managed service may require a commercial vendor licence; we assess the usage model and can include the appropriate licence in the proposal. Managed hosting, installation, configuration, API and plugin development, monitoring, backups and maintenance are scoped transparently alongside the vendor licence and infrastructure.

Infrastructure, integration and operations

NocoDB as part of your infrastructure

We do more than provide an application. WZ-IT designs the technical architecture, integrates network and identity, operates the agreed scope and develops integrations when the standard product is not enough.

Architecture and migration

Sizing, target environment, data transfer, cutover and recovery are resolved before production operations.

  • On-Premise

    In your data center: Installation on bare-metal, VM or Docker · Integration with existing Active Directory/LDAP

  • Cloud Installation

    AWS, Azure, Hetzner & more: Installation on AWS, Azure, GCP, Hetzner · Terraform/IaC setup (optional) · Kubernetes or Docker Compose · Capacity and scaling design

  • Enterprise Setup

    Advanced architecture after technical and licence assessment: HA and recovery design where supported by the application and edition · Logging according to feature set and edition · Custom security policies

Network and identity

SSO, secure access, internal systems and existing security components are integrated appropriately.

  • VPN Access

    WireGuard, NetBird, Tailscale, Headscale, OpenVPN, Cloudflare Tunnel · Easy client setup for all devices

  • SSO Integration

    Directly or through an upstream identity layer

  • Multi-Factor Auth

    Depends on application, edition and identity provider

  • Firewall & Hardening

    Fail2Ban, Rate Limiting, IP Whitelisting

Monitoring and service level

Updates, backups, technical monitoring and response paths follow a transparent operational scope.

  • 24/7 proactive monitoring

  • Updates and patches

    Regular updates, CVE monitoring and prioritised patches for critical vulnerabilities

  • Daily backup with 7-day retention

  • Personal technical contact

Integration and development

APIs, automation and custom extensions can be delivered beyond basic deployment.

  • Instant REST API

    NocoDB generates Swagger-documented APIs for your tables. We use these to connect mobile apps or web portals without having to write backend code.

  • Webhooks & Automation

    We configure webhooks for row changes. A status update in NocoDB can send emails, trigger Slack messages, or replicate data to other systems.

  • External Frontend Integration

    NocoDB is the backend. We build the frontend (React/Vue) tailored exactly to your users, while NocoDB serves as the admin panel for your power users.

Full-service installation with no hidden costs

What the NocoDB setup includes

  • Complete installation & configuration
  • SSL certificate & reverse proxy setup
  • Backup strategy & disaster recovery
  • Performance optimization & tuning
  • Security hardening following OWASP
  • Monitoring & logging setup
  • Documentation & best practices
  • Administrator training (remote)
  • 30 days email support included
  • Dedicated contact person
  • Optional integration: LDAP/AD, SSO, MFA
  • Update strategy & patch management setup

The exact scope depends on the application, edition, infrastructure and criticality. Vendor licences and non-standard components are quoted separately.

Concrete Use Cases

NocoDB Development & Integration

NocoDB transforms any database into a smart spreadsheet. We use the generated REST API to build custom applications that operate on your existing MySQL/Postgres data.

Admin Interface for SQL DBs

Problem

Developers constantly have to write SQL queries to modify operational data (e.g., enable users, correct content).

Solution

NocoDB is connected to the production DB (read/write). Role-based access enables support teams to make secure changes without SQL knowledge.

Inventory Management App

Problem

Inventory is maintained in Excel. No photos, no history, no multi-user support.

Solution

NocoDB as backend with 'Attachment' columns for photos. A mobile-optimized frontend enables scan & update in the warehouse via tablet.

Data Collection & Analysis

Problem

Data from different forms lands in silos. Consolidation is tedious.

Solution

NocoDB Form Views collect data centrally in SQL. We build dashboards (Metabase/Grafana) directly on this DB for real-time analysis.

Hosting & operations

Plan the operating scope and costs for NocoDB

We combine the right compute size with ongoing operations, backups, monitoring and a service level appropriate for the criticality of NocoDB. High availability and recovery targets are designed separately where needed.

Price after technical assessmentIndividual proposalA clearly defined operating scope instead of an opaque hosting flat fee.

Target architecture

Integrate NocoDB into your infrastructure with clear controls

Development and automation platforms need controlled execution, secrets, persistent data and clearly bounded connections to source and target systems.

Developers, triggers and source systems

Teams, repositories, webhooks, schedules and business systems initiate defined processes.

Secure access

TLS, firewall rules, reverse proxies or private network paths are designed around the platform's exposure.

Identity and permissions

Local accounts, SSO, directories, service accounts and emergency access are connected through clear roles.

NocoDB platform

Editor, API, build or workflow runtimes are deployed reproducibly and isolated appropriately.

Database and artefacts

Metadata, configuration, source state, packages or execution history.

Workers and runtimes

Queues, runners, containers, resource limits and separated execution environments.

APIs and target systems

Service accounts, secrets and controlled network paths to internal and external systems.

The diagram is a resilient target model. Its implementation depends on edition, data flows, load, availability objectives and existing infrastructure.

Reviews & projects

Client feedback and projects worldwide

WZ-IT moved our studio infrastructure from decentralised individual devices to a central platform: every site is securely connected via VPN, new devices are onboarded automatically and an entire site is provisioned from a template, without manual steps on location. What impressed me most is the breadth and depth of their knowledge: Timo and Robin are not a typical IT provider who sets up a server and leaves. The two of them think their way into highly complex infrastructure and software topics, work through every requirement we put in front of them, and build networking, provisioning and operations so that everything fits together in the end. WZ-IT is an excellent partner for complex software, network and architecture projects.
