Check out the Tech and Company pages as well as the slides from the recent South Bay PostgreSQL Meeetup: http://goo.gl/Mtg2W6 http://goo.gl/Mtg2W6 The founders both have strong academic and commercial experience and the advisor is Prof. Joseph Hellerstein (he has both an excellent academic reputation and good experience in industry/tech transfer). Note that TPCH is a "decision support benchmark". There are other technologies for helping postgres with these workloads as well: a column-store approach like https://github.com/citusdata/cstore_fdw https://github.com/citusdata/cstore_fdw, or the recent work on parallel sequential scans in Postgres core (http://rhaas.blogspot.com/2015/03/parallel-sequential-scan-for-postgresql.html http://rhaas.blogspot.com/2015/03/parallel-sequential-scan-f...), etc.
