It said that developers can create and connect to a highly scalable, resilient Postgres compatible database in minutes with zero operational overhead.
Karthik Ranganathan, co-founder and CTO of Yugabyte added, “YugabyteDB is the database of choice for organizations building cloud native microservices that demand highly scalable and resilient systems of record. YugabyteDB is feature-compatible with Postgres, allowing developers to easily start using the database with no changes to code or tooling. And now, Yugabyte Cloud makes distributed SQL effortless, allowing developers to focus on the application instead of the database.”
The company said that over the past few months, more than 1,000 organisations have signed up for the beta version of Yugabyte Cloud. Early access customers such as Midoin, Abra Controls and Keepworks are using Yugabyte Cloud to power their cloud native applications and business-critical services.
With Yugabyte Cloud, developers can focus on building great applications while leaving the day-to-day operations to Yugabyte. The cloud database service applies industry best practices to manage the infrastructure and database securely, offering capabilities such as daily backups, non-disruptive software upgrades, continuous availability, database usage monitoring, logging and audit, identity and access management, data encryption, and key rotation.
