Redplanetlabs

Red Planet Labs builds Rama, a unified backend platform for the JVM (Java/Clojure) that consolidates databases, queues, workers, and infrastructure into a single programming model — aiming to reduce backend complexity by up to 100x while providing ACID semantics, reactive queries, fine-grained change detection, and linear scalability. Rama exposes a REST API (an in-cluster HTTP+JSON RPC surface for depot appends, PState queries, and query-topology invokes), ships a `rama` operations CLI, publishes Maven client libraries under the com.rpl groupId, open-sources the Specter data-navigation library, and provides first-party Agent Skills for authoring Rama backends. Surfaced as a portfolio company of Kindred Ventures and enriched into the API Evangelist network.

Redplanetlabs publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Backend Platform, Database, Distributed Systems, and JVM.

Redplanetlabs’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, pricing, engineering blog, CLI, authentication, and 15 more developer resources.
