About Us

Springtail is a new way to scale your existing Postgres database.

PostgreSQL is one of the most popular and beloved relational databases in the world. Yet scaling Postgres for modern workloads can be challenging as applications expand and grow.

When developers hit a scalability wall, they typically face a choice: migrate or build?

Developers can migrate their existing Postgres to a scale-out database solution or build scalable data infrastructure from scratch. Both options are massive distractions, and teams spend too much time on infrastructure projects instead of core product development.

But it doesn't have to be this way.

Springtail works alongside your current PostgreSQL instance, transparently scaling out read execution without requiring changes to your application or migrating your existing database.

With Springtail, developers can skip the complexity of scaling Postgres and get back to building amazing product experiences.
