Use the library directly without a client

[siddhsql]

I want to ingest a large amount of data. Is there any way I can use the API that the server uses to access the database directly rather than having to go through a client?

Yes, that's possible, though I'm not sure if it would be any faster.

More specifically, you could use the gRPC (or REST) API that the server exposes directly.

Our Python client may not be the fastest, partially due to the language. If that is the case you may give our Rust client a shot.

Finally, I'd like to note that you should use our batch APIs for uploading a batch of points. That is much faster than upsering every point individually. All our clients have batching functions available.
