[Discussion] Future of Electric after Databricks?

Author: gxinghCreated Aug 24, 2026Updated Aug 24, 2026

Hi good people!

First of all, thank you to all the contributors for building this amazing service/product.

Does anyone know what will be the future of electric sync and other products after the acquisition by Databricks?

I read the official statement saying Everything Electric has previously open sourced stays open source: Postgres Sync, PGlite, TanStack DB, Durable Streams.

but I'm still a little worried.

  • will the electric sync project keep getting updates?
  • will it not be archived/deprecated?
  • can we reliably self-host electric sync? is there a paved path?

Thanks a bunch!
