Postgres, fully accounted for.

Balta DB is a managed PostgreSQL service built in Vilnius, Lithuania — for teams that want production databases in Europe, with guaranteed resources and a bill they can predict.

Why we built Balta

Three compromises, removed.

Teams running PostgreSQL today choose between three compromises. Usage-based platforms make the bill unpredictable. Shared infrastructure makes performance unpredictable. And running it yourself makes your engineers the backup plan.

We built Balta to remove all three: dedicated resources you can count on, backups proven by real restores, and one flat price — on standard PostgreSQL, so your data is always yours.

A Balta locationThree hosts running databases, and a fourth host’s worth of capacity kept free to rebuild any of them. Every host streams its changes continuously to a backup repository in Germany and, separately, to a second repository in France. A badge shows that a restore has been verified.Restore verifiedchecked on a schedule

How we run Balta.

Measured, not assumed.

Every commitment we make is tracked. If we can’t measure it, we don’t promise it.

Capacity held in reserve.

Every location keeps capacity free to rebuild a failed host, and we stop taking new services before we’d ever touch it.

Pricing without surprises.

One flat price per service. The bill you expect is the bill you get.

Leaving is easy.

Standard PostgreSQL in, standard PostgreSQL out.

The name

Balta means white.

Balta is the Lithuanian word for white — for clarity, simplicity and nothing hidden. It’s also where we come from: the Baltic. Say it BAL-tah.
