About HarperDB
HarperDB is a new type of development technology that combines distributed database, cache, application, and streaming systems into a single process. By collapsing the stack from multiple systems into one, we bypass costly serialization and latency-inducing network hops so that services are more performant and lower cost than ever before possible. Simply put, HarperDB is a better way of building enterprise technology services when performance, cost, and simplicity at scale matter. Join our passionate team in building a better future for development teams of all sizes.
