How it works
How DBWarp works.
A behavioral explanation. No protocol theory required.
Your application opens a connection to DBWarp instead of directly to your database. DBWarp opens an optimized connection to the database on your behalf. From your application's point of view, nothing has changed: it's still talking to PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQL Server. From the network's point of view, everything has changed: traffic now reaches the database faster and more reliably, even across long-distance and lossy paths.
That's it. That's the whole architecture you need to understand.
What changes — and what doesn't
For your application
Nothing. Same drivers, same queries, same behavior. You point at DBWarp the same way you'd point at the database.
For your database
Nothing. Standard wire protocol, standard auth, standard everything. The database doesn't know DBWarp is in the path.
For the network in between
Everything. Optimized transport, intelligent connection management, observability. The accelerator handles the distance.
