DBZero Software is a company based in Poland, founded by Wojciech Kozłowski and Adrian Zawadzki. The company is dedicated to developing dbzero—a technology that streamlines development by integrating logic, data persistence, and caching into one unified system. This approach allows for faster, simpler application development.

Additionally, dbzero supports the creation of specialized data models optimized for specific industries, such as genomics, finance, and geospatial sectors. In these environments, it can deliver performance speeds hundreds of times faster than standard solutions.

dbzero··on Show HN: Dbzero – Code as if you have infinite RAM (Python persistence engine)
While at this point there's no official C++ API provided you might try accessing C++ object interfaces directly (it's a lot of coding though). We plan to release an SDK for implementing your own C++ extensions within next couple of months. As of now we don't have any plans for supporting C# - but we have a prototype version for JavaScript. Interestingly JavaScript and Python objects will be fully interoperable so dbzero might become a convenience interface between those worlds.
dbzero··on What Does a Database for SSDs Look Like?
Please give a try to dbzero. It eliminates the database from the developer's stack completely - by replacing a database with the DISTIC memory model (durable, infinite, shared, transactional, isolated, composable). It's build for the SSD/NVME drive era.

We built dbzero because we believe modern application stacks have become unnecessarily complex. They often limit developer creativity by imposing rigid data models, while still requiring a lot of extra infrastructure for scalability, caching, event processing, and more. dbzero provides a foundation layer where, when needed, these capabilities can be added with just a few dozen lines of Python. By removing the burden of an external database, it encourages experimenting with new data structures and even different programming paradigms—optimizing for the problem instead of the tooling. dbzero is already in production on several real-world projects in e-commerce and healthcare. In one case, it delivered a 250× speedup over an existing Java + PostgreSQL–based solution. That improvement didn’t come from raw technology speed alone, but from the freedom to choose data structures and execution models that best fit the domain.
