Summary

We've recently announced Series C funding to fuel Cast AI's innovation and product expansion, including the launch of Database Optimizer (DBO), an automated caching solution designed to streamline database performance and simplify operations. DBO aims to address the challenges of managing database performance and scalability by providing a seamless, no-code caching layer that automatically optimizes cache management and invalidation. With DBO, customers can experience reduced database load, enhanced application performance, and responsiveness, as well as improved query observability and scalability. Early adopters have highlighted the ease of setup and immediate performance improvements as standout benefits, with some achieving cache hit rates of 80-90%. As we evolve DBO, our roadmap includes enhanced support for complex queries and stored procedures, identifying inefficient queries and automatically improving performance, better query indexing, and expansion to additional database types.
