The database technology we have been using for over four decades is about to become obsolete. At RethinkDB, we’re redesigning databases from the ground up to meet modern data management demands, and to take advantage of the latest advances in hardware. We’re working to breathe new life into database technology, from the low-level intricacies of database internals, to high-level data access technology.

In 2010, we raised $1.25m in funding to help carry out our vision of what database technology should look like.

RethinkDB is funded by top-tier investors, such as Y Combinator, Highland Capital Partners, Avalon Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, Charles River Ventures, and a team of passionate angels and entrepreneurs.

RethinkDB was founded in 2009, and is based in Mountain View, California.
