Its unique feature is 'Tembo Stacks', which are pre-configured Postgres deployments optimized for specific workloads like OLAP, AI/Vector DB, Geo-spatial, etc. For development workflows, Tembo provides database branching capabilities, allowing developers to instantly create lightweight, copy-on-write clones of their databases for development, testing, and CI/CD, similar to Neon.
