Founding partner program
Five teams. Ninety days free. Then a paid customer.
Burnside is building the PostgreSQL lifecycle platform — capture with pg-cdc, land in first table, move data with wire-drop, operate with data-agent. We are onboarding five founding partners who run real Postgres workloads. You get 90 days of hands-on help free; after that you continue as a paid customer.

Land
pg-warehouse
