Production-Proven

Built for Real Workloads

From AI-powered applications to healthcare systems, teams across industries rely on SynergyDB to consolidate infrastructure, power vector search and graph analytics, and ship faster — all without rewriting a single query.

🏥Healthcare

Healthcare / EMR Systems

A regional hospital network runs clinical data in PostgreSQL for structured records, MongoDB for flexible patient documents, Redis for real-time bed tracking, and graph queries for care team relationships. Maintaining four separate databases means four sets of backups, four connection pools, four failure domains, and data that's perpetually out of sync. With SynergyDB, every department accesses the same patient data through its preferred protocol — from a single cluster.

🔄SaaS

Zero-Downtime SaaS Migrations

A growing SaaS company needs to migrate from PostgreSQL to MongoDB for schema flexibility as their product evolves. Traditional migrations mean months of dual-writes, data validation scripts, and a terrifying cutover weekend. With SynergyDB as the intermediary, old code keeps talking PostgreSQL while new microservices speak MongoDB — both hitting the exact same data. Migration becomes a gradual, reversible process instead of a big-bang event.

🚀

Phase 1

Deploy SynergyDB

Deploy SynergyDB alongside existing PostgreSQL. Import schema and data via live replication. Zero application changes required.

📖

Phase 2

Redirect Reads

Point read traffic to SynergyDB. Old code still uses PostgreSQL protocol. Validate data consistency with shadow queries.

✍️

Phase 3

Redirect Writes

Redirect write traffic to SynergyDB. New services start using MongoDB protocol. Old services remain on PostgreSQL protocol unchanged.

Phase 4

Decommission Legacy

All traffic now flows through SynergyDB. Decommission the original PostgreSQL instance. Migrate remaining services to MongoDB protocol at your own pace.

🧩E-Commerce

Microservices Consolidation

An e-commerce platform has organically grown to five different databases: User Service on PostgreSQL, Product Catalog on MongoDB, Session Store on Redis, Recommendations on Neo4j, and Analytics on ClickHouse. Each database requires its own operational expertise, backup schedule, scaling strategy, and monitoring stack. The infrastructure team spends more time managing databases than building features. SynergyDB replaces all five with a single cluster — each microservice keeps its native driver, unchanged.

const pool = new Pool({
  host: "synergy.internal",  // was: pg-primary.internal
  port: 5432,
  database: "ecommerce",
  user: "user_svc",
  password: process.env.DB_PASS,
});

// All existing queries work unchanged
const user = await pool.query(
  "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1", [userId]
);
product-catalog/config.jsJavaScript
// Product Catalog — MongoDB protocol
import { MongoClient } from "mongodb";

const client = new MongoClient(
  "mongodb://synergy.internal:27017" // was: mongo-rs.internal
);

const db = client.db("ecommerce");

// All existing queries work unchanged
const product = await db
  .collection("products")
  .findOne({ sku: "WDG-4401" });

🏛️Insurance

Legacy Modernization

An insurance company has a 15-year-old claims processing system built on MySQL. Rewriting it would cost millions and take years. Meanwhile, a new mobile app needs to be built with Node.js and MongoDB for rapid iteration. SynergyDB bridges both worlds: the legacy claims system continues to speak MySQL to the same tables it always has, while the modern mobile app speaks MongoDB to the same underlying data. No rewrite of the legacy system is needed.

Without SynergyDB

  • Full rewrite of claims system (~$2M, 18 months)
  • Risk of data loss during migration
  • Regulatory re-certification required
  • Business logic regression testing across 15 years of edge cases
  • Dual-running systems during transition

With SynergyDB

  • Legacy system untouched — zero code changes
  • New mobile app ships in weeks, not months
  • No regulatory re-certification needed
  • Gradual modernization at your own pace
  • Single source of truth for all applications

📊Logistics

Real-Time Analytics

A logistics company needs real-time dashboards on operational data — shipment volumes, delivery ETAs, fleet utilization, route efficiency. The traditional approach is building ETL pipelines to copy data from the OLTP system into a separate data warehouse, adding hours of latency and enormous infrastructure cost. SynergyDB's built-in columnar storage layer handles analytical queries directly on operational data, eliminating the need for separate OLAP infrastructure entirely.

// Real-time status update via Redis protocol
await redis.hset(`shipment:${shipmentId}`, {
  lat: gpsData.lat,

});

🤖AI / ML

AI-Powered RAG Applications

Building a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) app typically requires a vector database for embeddings, a relational database for metadata, and a document store for the original content — plus sync pipelines between all three. With SynergyDB, you store vectors, metadata, and documents in one engine with full ACID guarantees. Built-in HNSW indexing, OpenAI/HuggingFace embedding integration, and LangChain compatibility make it the ideal foundation for AI applications.

        json={"query": f"""
          INSERT INTO documents
            (id, content, embedding)
          VALUES ('{doc_id}', '{content}',
