Legacy Databases Fail in a
Cloud-Native World
The way we build and deploy applications has changed. Traditional monolithic databases like Oracle, SQL Server, and DB2 were not designed for cloud-native transactional applications, resulting in:
Cloud-Native Applications Deserve Distributed PostgreSQL
Discover Distributed PostgreSQL on Kubernetes
Select from fully-managed (YugabyteDB Aeon), co-managed with data in your environment, or self-managed (YugabyteDB Anywhere) based on your requirements for control and operational responsibility.
Deploy YugabyteDB with automatic sharding, replication factor configuration, and geo-distribution policies that match your application’s performance and compliance requirements.
Establish monitoring with built-in Prometheus and OpenTelemetry integration, automated backup and recovery, and seamless upgrade processes for production-ready operations.
FAQ
YugabyteDB re-uses the upper half of PostgreSQL allowing us to offer advanced features and provide a seamless transition to distributed SQL. Below the API layer, Yugabyte has completely re architected a distributed, transactional storage layer to seamless handle spreading the database across numerous nodes. Think of YugabyteDB as PostgreSQL for the cloud native world.
YugabyteDB offers a range of deployment options to suit diverse infrastructure needs and preferences. You can deploy it as a fully managed DBaaS on your preferred cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud). You can also deploy it as a self-managed DBaaS on public clouds, on-premises, or in a hybrid setup. Additionally, YugabyteDB can be installed on VMs, containers, or bare-metal systems.
Yes, like PostgreSQL, the YugabyteDB database is 100% open source under the Apache 2.0 license and is available for download on Github. Our commercial DBaaS solutions include support and a powerful control plane for easy deployment and scalable management.
