Competitive Landscape
Who DoltHub competes with, and how they differ.
Open-source version control for data lakes (branch/commit/merge over S3-style object storage) -- the same "Git for data" pitch as Dolt, but built for data-lake/analytics files rather than an OLTP-style SQL database.
Serverless MySQL platform (built on Vitess) offering schema branching and deploy requests -- solves database *schema change* management for existing MySQL apps rather than versioning the data itself the way Dolt does natively.
Serverless Postgres with instant, copy-on-write database branching for dev/test workflows -- branching is ephemeral infrastructure tooling, not Dolt's row-level Git history with diff/blame/merge.
