Postgres Gets Horizontal Scaling: PgDog Raises $5.5M from Top VCs

PgDog solves the fundamental scaling limitation that forced companies to choose between Postgres and specialized databases like MongoDB or DynamoDB. Built by experienced infrastructure engineers from Instacart, the product is already handling 2M+ queries per second in production across multiple deployments. With $5.5M in funding and an open-source, vendor-agnostic model, PgDog could eliminate the primary reason companies maintain multiple database technologies.
