Orchestrate.io eliminates the need to run multiple databases by unifying geospatial, time-series, graph, full-text search, and key-value queries into an intuitive API that can globally distribute data into any cloud - public or private. It's not a new database – it's the best databases orchestrated by a REST API service. We manage the servers, hardware, and networking. Because Orchestrate is a cloud-based service that makes creating global data infrastructure as simple as just signing up. The company is based in Portland, Oregon.
