Database Modernization without Tradeoffs

Embrace distributed PostgreSQL for an agile, cloud-native future

Read Solution Brief

Database Modernization without Tradeoffs

Struggling with Legacy Database Limitations?

Your legacy database architecture wasn't designed for the demands of modern, cloud-native organizations, forcing expensive tradeoffs that slow innovation and limit growth:

Frequent Downtime and Complex Resilience

Legacy monolithic architecture is fragile and complex to manage, creating operational failovers and risking business-critical app failures during peak demand

Limited Scale and Performance Degradation

P99 latency degrades at 70-75% CPU utilization, requiring premature infrastructure scaling, manual data sharding, and an expensive hardware footprint

Inefficient Operations and Slow Innovation

Complex tech stacks create management burdens, developer inefficiency, and can’t meet evolving business requirements or capitalize on cloud-native architecture

Proven Path to
Database Modernization
