About the Company

EDB

Enterprise database management and PostgreSQL solutions

EDB provides database management software and services centered on PostgreSQL. It offers an enhanced enterprise-grade version called EDB Postgres Advanced Server, plus tools for backups, recovery, replication, migration, and cloud deployment. The system works by expanding open-source PostgreSQL with additional features and management capabilities, enabling automated maintenance and scalable operation in large environments. Unlike general database providers, EDB focuses deeply on PostgreSQL, including Oracle compatibility tools that let applications run with minimal code changes, which helps firms switch providers without major rewrites. The goal is to reduce costs and increase reliability and security for enterprise databases, supported by 24/7 expert assistance and professional training to make PostgreSQL the go-to choice for large organizations.
