About
A team dedicated to database performance.
We've spent years working on core infrastructure and observability — the parts that show up at the bottom of stack traces. We started DBWarp because the network between your application and your database stopped being good enough.
Mission
Why we built DBWarp
Distance is the silent tax on every modern application. Cross-region deployments, multi-cloud platforms, branch offices, and globally distributed users all pay it — and most fixes either rewrite the application, weaken consistency, or shovel work onto your team. We didn't think any of those were good options. So we built a transparent accelerator that sits between your application and your database, fixes the performance problem at the right layer, and stays out of everyone's way.
Principles
What we believe
Four ideas show up in every product decision we make.
- Distance belongs to the network, not the application. Latency fixes that require rewriting your queries aren't fixes — they're tax cuts paid in engineering time.
- Compatibility beats novelty. PostgreSQL should stay PostgreSQL. MySQL should stay MySQL. SQL Server should stay SQL Server. Your drivers, your ORMs, and your tooling should keep working without modification.
- Honest benchmarks beat marketing benchmarks. Every claim on this site is reproducible, and we publish the workloads where we run at parity, not just the wins.
- Narrow products beat broad platforms. We don't replace your database, your driver, or your queries. We do one job — and we do it well enough that you stop thinking about it.
Approach
How we work
Three commitments behind every release.
Measure first
Every benchmark we publish is reproducible against the same harness, the same network shapes, and the same baselines. If we can't measure it cleanly, we don't claim it.
Ship narrow
One accelerator. Three database protocols. One binary. The smaller the surface, the easier it is to operate, audit, and trust.
Stay honest
We tell you up front where DBWarp wins, where it runs at parity, and where it isn't the right tool. The honesty is the differentiator.
