Hi,

I've just launched mach3db, the world's fastest database as a service (DBaaS).

It's Postgres compatible and it comes with these extensions installed: https://www.timescale.com/blog/top-8-postgresql-extensions/

Every user gets their own Postgres compatible database hosted on the mach3db.com server.

We back up every database to Amazon S3 every day. We retain the fourteen most recent backups as long as your subscription is current.

Currently, our server only has a 1 gigabit Internet connection. However, we can easily upgrade to 10 gigabit if we see enough demand for the product.

We are flexible and we can make custom arrangements such as: - more backups per day - more backups retained - dedicated servers - technology licensing - any reasonable request

Please email james@mach3db.com if you'd like access to a demo account to try it out for free.

Thanks!

What to back up the claim of the fastest? For what workloads? Benchmarks vs Postgres?

I haven't conducted detailed benchmarks yet but it should be much faster than a comparable Postgres database as a service hosted on a standard cloud or colo server.

You can benchmark it with this tool: https://pastebin.com/aybPTd3b

Please email james@mach3db.com for test credentials.

Thanks!

Thanks, you are saying you are hosting Postgres on a dedi server right? That’s what you offer? Any master-master or master-slave setup or just Postgres?

You might want to change some wording on the site if that’s the case; now it looks like something more than it is I guess? I mean; taking a larger dedi server than you run would make that ‘the fastest’ no?

When you have, say, 100 monthly users, that are all hammering your server, how do you plan to keep it ‘the fastest’? I would think even one user can blow it up, so 2 users might require you to get another server?

I added the benchmarking tool to Github here: https://github.com/mach3db/postgres-benchmarker
