Hey PH community! Alex here, head of product at Xata 👋 We're really excited about todays launch as it marks the next major step in the evolution of Xata. Since the beginning our mission has been to radically simplify the way developers work with data. I'm proud to say that we've stayed true to that mission and up until now, have been able to accomplish it by abstracting away the underlying databases. With todays announcement, we are unleashing the elephant with our brand new serverless PostgreSQL service. This means you can connect to your Xata database using any PostgreSQL client, while still keeping everything that you love about Xata. A collaborative interface, instant database creation, git-like branching, zero cold starts or pausing because of inactivity, a full-text and vector search engine, file attachments, and much more. We aim to provide your entire data layer as a service and are building our platform with PostgreSQL at its core. This was a pretty interesting technical challenge and if you're interested in learning more, you can check out our launch blog for more details. Product Hunt fam 🐱, I think you'll really enjoy this. We actually did record a "meet the makers" video if you'd like to learn more about our investment in PostgreSQL from our CEO and meet the developers behind our brand new service. It's a fun informal chat with the amazing people that made this release possible. Starting today, you can use PostgreSQL enabled databases as part of our public beta. With our shared cluster architecture, we're able to provide one of the best PostgreSQL free tiers in the industry and we'd love for you to take it for a spin with your next project. Our team is really excited about this release and if you're able to dive in, we'd love to know what you think and are open to any and all feedback. Happy building 🦋

Congrats on the launch @alexf_19 and Team Xata 🚀 As a big fan of Postgresql I really love your latest product direction. I have a few questions: - Can Xata be used for "infinitely scalable" data storage? Example use case: powering social media feeds of millions of followers who follow famous people - What is the latency like to communicate with a Xatabase from an AWS or GCP hosted web app?

Hey @jgani! Thanks 🚀 During our launch week we also announced a new upcoming feature, currently in private beta, that covers that scenario: Postgres Dedicated Clusters. Thanks to the compute power of AWS we are able to spin up a dedicated database cell with all the scale benefits of Amazon Aurora for you. You can either configure a size for your instance or even use the auto-scaling feature. You can read more in https://xata.io/blog/postgres-de.... Regarding latency, talking to a hosted app in AWS in the same region will be very low since you will likely be in the same datacenter. For GCP or Azure, server to server latencies within the same region are also quite good when connecting to AWS.

@jgani Thanks for the questions! It looks like @sferadev beat me to the answers. If you'd ever like to chat in more detail, you can find me in our Discord (https://xata.io/discord) or I'd be happy to hop on a quick Zoom and hash out any details. Have a great rest of your week 🙂

@sferadev @alexf_19 Thanks Alex. I'm not on that scale yet at the moment. I'm keeping my architecture old school and simple. I asked the questions to help educate people about Xata :)

Congratulations on the launch. I've been a very big Xata fan since this year. Was using MongoDB as my database before, but when I heard about Xata, I knew I had to jump in on this, and I can say that you all are doing an amazing job.
