Another globally distributed cloud native SQL database on the rise: Yugabyte Raises $30 million in Series B Funding. Backstage chat with CEO and Founders
Your good old on-premise SQL database is in terminal decline. A pure-play open-source cloud-native PostgreSQL, with support for Apache Cassandra and GraphQL interfaces, is what you need.
Or at least, this is what the Yugabyte crew thinks. The company, founded by Facebook data infrastructure veterans, announced that it has raised $30 million in an oversubscribed Series B round to double down on community and team growth. This is a crowded market, but big enough to be a non-zero-sum game.
We connected with Yugabyte founders Kannan Muthukkaruppan and Karthik Ranganathan, and newly recruited CEO Bill Cook, previously of Sun Microsystems and Pivotal, for a deep dive in the company, the funding, and the market.
