Ozgun Erdogan

Founder

I’m the cofounder of Ubicloud (YC W24), an open source alternative to AWS. We're on a mission to rebuild the cloud market with different values. Previously, I was a partner at Microsoft, leading PostgreSQL engineering teams. I came to Microsoft through its acquisition of Citus Data (S11). I was the cofounder and CTO at Citus, and I learned a lot about doing startups there. Before all this, I built distributed systems at Amazon.

Daniel Farina

Founder/CTO

I am one of the founders of Ubicloud. I've contributed to a number of control planes from an early phase, starting at Heroku, in what would become Heroku Postgres. Since then, I've serially created new control planes and infrastructure cloud products with some close colleagues, at Citus Cloud and Crunchy Bridge. Ubicloud is the fourth such system.
