Yugabyte is an open-source, cloud-native distributed SQL database designed for developers seeking to build global applications with low latency and high resilience. It supports massive scalability, enabling millions of transactions per second and the ability to store multiple terabytes of data per node. With features like synchronous and multi-master replication, it allows for geo-distribution across various regions and cloud environments. This flexibility makes it ideal for internet-scale applications.

The database leverages the power of PostgreSQL-compatible SQL and distributed ACID transactions, ensuring developer agility and operational resilience. It is capable of maintaining continuous availability even in the event of failures in compute, storage, or network. Yugabyte’s on-demand scaling feature allows users to easily add or remove nodes, eliminating the need for over-provisioned clusters and significantly reducing user latency.
