Yes we are based on FoundationDB. We pivoted from OLTP database to a lower level product as we found that it makes more sense to innovate at the storage infra layer. There is lot of innovation already happening at the higher level database layer.
And we don’t charge for egress to internet.
If you are looking for an active-active multi-region read-anywhere write-anywhere object storage service then you would choose Tigris over R2 :)
