Crunchy Data Warehouse
A next-generation Postgres-native data warehouse. Full Iceberg support for fast analytical queries and transactions, built on unmodified Postgres to support the features and ecosystem you love.
Why We Built It
Since the early days of Postgres, it's been modified to suit data warehousing needs. The analytics landscape has evolved, but Postgres solutions haven't kept up. Some have stretched Postgres beyond its core capabilities for OLAP, sacrificing performance. Others have created forks, resulting in fragmentation and loss of compatibility. We saw the need to build a modern Postgres data warehouse with true OLAP performance, modern open formats, and no forks.
What It Is
It's Postgres, not simply "Postgres-compatible," extended to perform efficiently on analytical workloads. Crunchy Data Warehouse extends Postgres with a vectorized query engine, parallel processing, and the ability to read and write to transactional tables that are backed by a data lake infrastructure.
Use Cases
The only limitation is your previous understanding of Postgres. With Crunchy Data Warehouse's extended capabilities, the Postgres you love becomes an excellent fit for analytics. With the expansion of workloads across the industry, it’s a great fit for:
