Cloudflare acquires Outerbase to expand database and agent developer experience capabilities

The Outerbase team has been acquired by Cloudflare, a leading infrastructure platform for developers. The acquisition aims to integrate Outerbase's database management tools into Cloudflare's platform, making data more accessible and intuitive for developers. Outerbase was founded on the idea of simplifying databases for everyone, regardless of their skill level, and its technology is now being merged with Cloudflare's Durable Objects and D1 services. The integration will bring features like a unified data explorer, new REST APIs, query editor with type-ahead functionality, real-time data capture, and more to Cloudflare's platform. The acquisition also marks the end of Outerbase's hosted cloud service, but self-hosting options will still be available. The Outerbase team is excited to join forces with Cloudflare and contribute to building a better developer experience for data management.
