Open-source Serverless Postgres with Nikita Shamgunov

PostgreSQL is a free and open-source relational database management system. Postgres-based databases are widespread and are used by a variety of organizations, from Reddit to the International Space Station, and Postgres databases are a common offering from cloud providers such as AWS, Alibaba Cloud, and Heroku. Neon is a serverless open-source alternative to AWS Aurora Postgres. It separates storage and compute and substitutes the PostgreSQL storage layer by redistributing data across a cluster of nodes. Today, we spoke with Nikita Shamgunov of Neon. We discuss how Neon scales Postgres, how it saves cost and the engineering that makes it possible.
