Today we're releasing Multigres v0.1 alpha to the open source community, the first public milestone of our mission to bring Vitess-grade horizontal scaling, high availability, and operational simplicity to Postgres. It's early, it's alpha, and we're excited to get it into your hands.

This is an open-source-only release. Multigres for Supabase is coming soon.

Multigres is a scalable operating system for Postgres: it holistically manages your Postgres instances and gives you sharding, connection pooling, automatic failover, and backup orchestration.

Postgres at scale is operationally complex: You need to manage read replicas, failovers, connection limits, backups, and more. Multigres handles these chores as a single cohesive system. And when the time comes to scale, Multigres will help you shard your database and scale it horizontally.

The v0.1 alpha introduces advanced connection pooling, automatic failovers, and a Kubernetes operator for deployment.
