Founded in 2012 by the team that scaled Twitter, Fauna has developed an operational database that lets enterprises adapt at scale by combining global distribution, multi-tenancy, and strong consistency with a modern, unified query language. Unlike legacy databases, FaunaDB delivers flexibility, scalability, and safety without compromise. FaunaDB is available as an elastic cloud service and as an on-premises package with zero infrastructure lock-in. FaunaDB has been in development for 4 years and is deployed at a number of customers, including NVIDIA. CRV provided seed funding to Fauna in 2016.
“We needed a partner with long-term vision and an appetite for tackling the massive market and hard problems that Fauna has set our sights on. Murat understands the division of responsibilities between partner and entrepreneur and has the vision to support an ambitious, groundbreaking project like Fauna. CRV’s team is experienced, accessible, and pragmatic, and we’ve had a great experience so far.”
