Databricks acquires Neon
Databricks agrees to acquire Neon, a serverless Postgres database company, to bring speed and flexibility to production workloads.
Neon’s co-founders are among the very few people in the world who could re-architect Postgres with true separation of storage and compute, built for modern developers and AI systems. They set out to simplify the operational aspect of database scaling by automating it as load changed, so developers could start very small and not worry about over- or under-provisioning. Before Neon, Nikita started his career working on SQL Server and later became well-known in the database community as a co-founder and CEO of SingleStore, driving the startup’s business to over $100M in annual revenue.
