Citus Data addressed the significant time investment businesses dedicate to database management. Their solution, Citus, aimed to alleviate this burden by offering worry-free PostgreSQL. Citus, designed for scale-out architecture, functions as a PostgreSQL extension available in multiple formats. These include open-source software, enterprise software for on-premise or cloud deployment, and a fully-managed Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS). Citus enabled users to concentrate on application development rather than database administration, catering to multi-tenant applications requiring scalability and real-time analytics performance. Founded in 2011 and backed by Khosla Ventures and Data Collective, Citus Data, a Y Combinator alumnus, operated from offices in San Francisco and Istanbul, simplifying the process of scaling PostgreSQL.
