[Joe, Hydra cofounder] Hey, thanks! There are similarities, but you’re right to point out that our focus with Hydra is on bringing columnstore-powered serverless analytics to Postgres. We wouldn’t position Hydra differently because we think

Our goal is to enable realtime analytics on Postgres without requiring an external analytics database. Think more towards extending Postgres, rather than replacing it. Postgres brings it's rowstore to Hydra, which is great for transact

Ok, I'm down to run an experiment and remove the user limits on your account! DM me on X (@JoeSciarrino) or email founders@hydra so I know which account is yours.

[Joe, Hydra cofounder] Yes, you're right and to clarify: Hydra's columnstore is decoupled (bottomless), compressed, and supports multi-node reading. ( https://docs.hydra.so/changelog/changelog#march-2025-3 ) Ev

[Joe, Hydra cofounder] Hey there, I appreciate you taking the time to write this up - helps a lot to hear what's confusing. One of the downsides of serverless is that it can be difficult to predict the overall monthly cost when the gra

[Joe, Hydra cofounder] Hey, that's really great - I love hearing that. Hydra is a columnar database with an integrated Postgres rowstore. Analytics aren't purely best on columnar: we've heard from users that their analytics w
