Tiger Data, a database company, has launched Ghost, a managed PostgreSQL service dedicated to AI agents.

According to a SiliconANGLE report on June 9, Ghost is designed to support the infrastructure needed for coding and workflow agents to conduct large-scale experiments.

Tiger Data co-founder and CEO Ajay Kulkarni (아제이 쿨카르니) said, "Many new applications are being built with coding agents. Agents are the future packaging model for software."

Ghost is based on Fluid Storage, a storage technology developed in-house by Tiger Data. Using a copy-on-write method, multiple database instances share the same data blocks and store new blocks only when changes occur, and users pay only for the data that changes.

"Fast forking" is another feature highlighted by Tiger Data. Fast forking lets users copy an existing dataset separately in seconds to minutes to create a new database. It allows agents to create and delete experimental environments immediately without long copy times.

Ghost is also compatible with major PostgreSQL extensions such as TimescaleDB and PostGIS. Kulkarni said, "It is hard to imagine that a database for agents would not be PostgreSQL."

Pricing is based on actual computing usage rather than the number of databases. Kulkarni said, "The database is free. You can create a database per agent or per task."
