Skip to main content
Xata is a modern PostgreSQL platform built for engineering teams that want to build faster and ship with confidence. It transforms development workflows by giving teams instant, safe access to real production data (PII removed), without the risks or costs of maintaining staging replicas. With Xata, every pull request or coding agent can instantly create its own isolated database branch with anonymized production data. Branches use copy-on-write technology, so the data is shared with the parent instead of being fully copied. That’s why creating a new branch is instant, whether your database is 1 TB or 5 TB. Branches are also very cost-efficient: you only pay for compute while storage is shared, and they can automatically hibernate when not in use to save even more. You can start using Xata just for your development workflows, keeping your production database exactly where it is. This setup allows your team to branch, test, and experiment safely with real data without changing your existing infrastructure. Once your team is ready, Xata can power both development and production for a unified workflow and consistent performance.
