Citus Data is venture backed by Khosla Ventures and Data Collective. At Citus Data, their mission is to make it so developers never have to worry about scaling their database again. Citus is worry-free Postgres that is built to scale out. Made for SaaS companies and enterprises, Citus is an extension to Postgres that transforms PostgreSQL into a distributed database. Their Citus database is available as open source, as enterprise software you can run anywhere, and as a fully-managed database as a service.
"We provisioned a new database using the Citus Cloud console, ran our migrations, copied over our data from Heroku, and we were up and running on Citus in just a few minutes. And the technical benefits were instant. We saw queries that were once taking 15-30+ seconds reduced to less than 500 ms."
"Scaling up our single-node Postgres deployment worked fine early on, but we knew it wouldn’t last. Our application grew faster than we anticipated. At one point, we had to email our customers to let them know we were working to fix the latency and performance issues. Now, with Citus, our query response times are less than 500 milliseconds for 97% of our queries."
"At Algolia, our job is to provide the best search as a service, not to maintain clusters of PostgreSQL servers. We really wanted a database that scales, a database we wouldn’t have to worry about. Citus has given us that."
