Tiger Data (creators of TimescaleDB)
Tiger Data is addressing one of the largest challenges (and opportunities) in databases for years to come: helping developers, businesses, and society make sense of the data that humans and their machines are generating in copious amounts. Tiger Data is the fastest PostgreSQL cloud platform that natively supports full-SQL, combining the power, reliability, and ease-of-use of a relational database with the scalability typically seen in NoSQL systems. It is built on PostgreSQL and optimized for fast ingest and complex queries. Tiger Data is deployed for powering mission-critical applications, including industrial data analysis, complex monitoring systems, operational data warehousing, financial risk management, and geospatial asset tracking across industries as varied as manufacturing, space, utilities, oil & gas, logistics, mining, ad tech, finance, telecom, and more. Tiger Data is backed by NEA, Benchmark, Icon Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, Two Sigma Ventures, and Tiger Global.
