Speedb, an Israeli deep tech company, is addressing scalability issues in key-value stores such as RocksDB by redesigning the most basic components from the ground up. The company's co-founders experienced scalability issues while working at storage vendor Infinidat, which led them to develop a solution that eliminates the need for sharding and enables developers to scale datasets with billions of objects without changing any code. Speedb has already signed a strategic partnership with Redis and other industry leaders and has deployed its solution with several customers. Its go-to-market strategy involves building an open-source community for RocksDB/Speedb users and developers and creating a versatile next-generation storage engine with and for the community.
