About
Xata is a hosted PostgreSQL platform that provides instant database branching, copy-on-write cloning, scale-to-zero compute, and built-in anonymization for production and development workflows. It supports vanilla PostgreSQL and extensions, and can be used on Xata-managed cloud or deployed in a customer’s own cloud account.
The service is aimed at teams running agent-driven development, CI, simulation, and multi-tenant workloads that need isolated Postgres branches with real data. The pricing page lists an always-free open source edition, a Standard plan starting at $0.012 per hour plus storage with a $100 credit for a 14-day trial, and BYOC deployment options across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Hetzner.
