At Xata we’re on a mission to radically simplify the way developers work with data with our Postgres database platform.

We make managing database infrastructure easy giving developers all the functionality their application needs to evolve at scale.

Modern applications are complex. We are building a Postgres Database Platform that augments PostgreSQL with the functionality modern applications need at scale.

In every feature we build, we optimize for developer experience that will ultimately reduce our customers time to market or dramatically simplify hard architectural problems at scale. Our application is highly intuitive and is great for data collaboration with the entire team.
