See Vela in Action
Watch how Vela transforms your database workflow with instant cloning, Git-like branching, and enterprise-grade performance.
BYOC Postgres Made Simple
Deploy Vela on your own infrastructure (bare metal or cloud) for full control. Get instant branches, PITR/time travel, independent scaling, RBAC, and HTTP storage API — with zero vendor lock-in.
- Copy-on-write branching & cloning
- Bookmarks for time travel & rollback
- Scale to zero for idle environments
- Separation of storage and compute
- Why NVMe storage matters
- Right-size compute to slash costs
Why BYOC Postgres Matters
Deploy Vela in your own cloud for complete control, compliance, and data sovereignty. Get managed Postgres features without vendor lock-in.
Full Data Sovereignty
Your data stays in your VPC, data center, or on-premises. Zero external data transfer. Complete compliance control.
Zero Vendor Lock-In
Plain PostgreSQL with standard tools and drivers. Switch providers or self-host anytime without data migration.
Enterprise Security
RBAC, RLS, audit trails, and IAM integration. Vendor cannot access your databases without explicit approval.
Cost Predictability
Your cloud bill is your database bill. No vendor markups. Leverage existing cloud investments and reserved instances.
Instant Cloning & PITR
Copy-on-write clones for testing, point-in-time recovery for safety. All the features of managed Postgres in your infrastructure.
Simplified Compliance
Meet GDPR, HIPAA, SOC2, FedRAMP, and custom regulations. Audit trails and access controls in your hands.
High-Performance BYOC Postgres Built for Enterprise
Vela combines ultra-fast NVMe storage, instant cloning, PITR, and enterprise security features — all deployed in your cloud. Get Postgres BaaS benefits without vendor lock-in.
High-Performance Architecture
Ultra-low latency. No tuning required.
Vela runs on modern infrastructure with NVMe-backed storage and high-throughput compute — delivering real-time performance for transactional, analytical, and mixed workloads.
Instant Copy-on-Write Clones
Spin up environments in seconds
Create space-efficient database clones for QA, testing, and staging. Our copy-on-write engine ensures instant cloning with minimal resource overhead until data diverges.
Zero Data Loss Protection
Snapshots, HA & PITR built in
Built-in support for high availability, scheduled backups, and point-in-time recovery. Recover fast from failures with no vendor lock-in or external dependencies.
Git-Like Database Workflows
Branch, test, and merge with confidence
Bring CI/CD principles to your database. Create isolated branches for each feature, run QA on real data, and merge back to production safely.
