About Orchestrate
We built Orchestrate so developers could tap into the power of multiple types of databases without having to run databases in production themselves. Orchestrate unifies multiple databases through one simple REST API. Orchestrate runs as a service and supports queries like full-text search, events, graph, and key/value. Orchestrate handles security, monitoring, backups, and replication. There are no licenses to buy, no software to download, no hidden costs, and no lock-in.
