Tiger Data requires industry-standard Transport Layer Security (versions 1.2+) encryption for all connections. All database services support client certificate verification modes. Critical internal traffic is protected by mutual TLS.
[IMG: Card background]
[H4] Encryption at rest
All data volumes, including backups, are encrypted at rest with unique keys specific to each service, and keys are automatically rotated at a regular cadence. Data encryption keys with AWS-KMS, and Virtual Private Network (VPN) keys with OpenSSL, are both 256-bit key; website SSL certificates with TLS areis 128-bit key.
[H4] SSO/SAML
SSO/SAML authentication is available to all customers on the Tiger Cloud Enterprise Plan.
[H3] Network Security and
Data Sovereignty
[IMG: Card background]
[H4] Backups
All customer databases are continuously backed up to highly durable storage. Point-In-Time Recovery (PITR) is available to all database services.
[H4] Data center security
Tiger Cloud runs all services on AWS data centers which have some of the highest levels of security and reliability available.
[IMG: Card background]
[H4] Payments and PCI
Credit card payments are processed through Stripe without storing personal credit card information.*
[IMG: Card background]
[H4] Intrusion detection/Pen test
Tiger Data regularly collaborates with external security audit firms to assess our security posture and intrusion detection capabilities. Results of the tests are available by request.
[H4] Subprocessor transparency
Tiger Data keeps the list of data subprocessors on the Tiger Data website for review.
[IMG: Card background]
[H4] Vulnerability scans
Software developed by Tiger Data is constantly analyzed by static analysis security tools. Code is reviewed as changes are proposed and security design reviews take place as needed. If you discover a security vulnerability, please review our Vulnerability Disclosure Policy.

[H4] VPC peering
Privately link your application’s VPC to a dedicated VPC running Tiger Cloud, so traffic stays off the public internet while retaining low-latency performance.
[H4] AWS Transit Gateway
Route traffic from different clouds, on-premise data centers and other AWS services through a single Tiger Cloud connection using AWS Transit Gateway.
[IMG: Card background]
[H4] IP allow lists
Restrict access to your Tiger Cloud services to trusted IP addresses only, preventing unauthorized connections without the need for a Virtual Private Cloud.

[H2] Fluid Storage
A storage layer Postgres never had. Your workloads will notice.
Fluid Storage is a distributed block layer that gives Postgres capabilities it was never designed to have. More throughput, true elasticity, and no wasted storage at any scale.Read the Fluid Storage Deep DiveNo duplicated dataOne copy of your data, replicated synchronously across block servers before every write is acknowledged. A single source of truth that is always consistent and always protected, without paying for mirrored volumes.True elasticityVolumes expand and contract automatically with your workload. No manual resizing, no cooldown windows, no paying for capacity you don't use. Storage scales to 128TB and beyond.Local SSD cacheFrequently accessed data is served from local SSD, so your most demanding queries never wait on network round-trip. 400K+ IOPS without the high cost.// native search
