About Directus

Directus is the world's leading Open Data Platform that layers an instant REST & GraphQL API and an intuitive no-code management interface over any SQL database. Created in 2004, it operates as a transparent wrapper rather than a closed CMS, ensuring your database remains 100% standard SQL.

Why Directus Stands Out

  • Pure Database Mirror: No proprietary tables or forced data structures—your database stays completely standard.
  • Instant Headless APIs: Dynamic REST and GraphQL endpoints generated instantly on schema changes.
  • Extensible Modular Architecture: Write custom display interfaces, panel widgets, and backend hooks with TypeScript.
  • Enterprise Grade Security: SSO integration, two-factor authentication, and rule-based role permissions.

Directus Technologies

  • Node.js LTS Engine: High-throughput asynchronous backend built with Express and Knex.js.
  • PostgreSQL & MySQL: Supports all modern SQL engines with high-concurrency connection pooling.
  • Vue.js 3 Studio: Ultra-fast, responsive single-page application for data exploration.
  • Redis Cache & WebSockets: In-memory caching and real-time subscription distribution.
