Systems and techniques are provided for mutable data ingestion and storage. Data for a database may be received at a computing device. New data from the data for the database may be stored as a mutable data chunk. The data for the database may be determined to include updated data for a previously stored mutable data chunk. The updated data may be applied to the previously stored mutable data chunk to update the previously stored mutable chunk. A second previously stored mutable data chunk may be determined to have been initially stored a specified amount of time ago. In response to determining that the second previously stored mutable data chunk was initially stored the specified amount of time ago, the second previously stored mutable data chunk may be caused to become an immutable data chunk.
