About Tinybird
Tinybird is retiring Classic on a clock while stacking capability into Forward
Releases arrive weekly and the through-line is the migration from Classic to Forward. Classic is now scheduled for sunset on Free and Developer plans by September 15, following the BI Connector's end of life and the earlier migrate-to-forward CLI command. Forward is where capability accumulates: DynamoDB connectivity, PREWHERE, lightweight deletes in beta, arm64-native local runs and a ClickHouse bump from 25.3 to 25.8.
