Lakebase Autoscaling

info

Lakebase Autoscaling is the latest version of Lakebase, with autoscaling compute, scale-to-zero, branching, and instant restore. For supported regions, see Region availability. If you are a Lakebase Provisioned user, see Lakebase Provisioned.

Lakebase Autoscaling is 100% standard Postgres with automatic scaling, instant branching, and deep integration with the Databricks platform. Create a project, get a connection string, and start building.

• • Get started with Lakebase
  • Create a project, connect, run your first query, and explore integrations with Unity Catalog and the Databricks lakehouse.
• • Serve lakehouse data in your app
  • Sync Unity Catalog tables into Lakebase for low-latency app serving. Eliminate reverse ETL pipelines with fully managed syncs.
• • Replicate operational data to the lakehouse
  • Stream Postgres changes to Delta tables with continuous CDC for analytics, history, and downstream pipelines. (Beta)
