Xata is now open source under Apache 2.0

[dascalescuro]

Welcome to the Xata open-source community.

Today we released the core of the Xata platform under the Apache 2.0 license. Xata is a cloud-native Postgres platform with copy-on-write branching and scale-to-zero, built on top of CloudNativePG and OpenEBS.

• Quickstart guide: https://xata.io/docs/quickstart
• CLI reference: https://xata.io/docs/cli/auth

The repo includes the SQL gateway, branch operator, scale-to-zero plugin, control plane APIs, CLI, and Helm charts. Everything you need to deploy Xata on your own Kubernetes cluster.

We're excited to build this in the open.
