+Epsilon3 are a USA based Y-Combinator backed startup leveraging telemetry data to digitise paper based procedures for complex
+testing and operations. Their product is rapidly becoming the OS for space projects and complex operations.

+Learn how the team at Epsilon3 use Supabase to help teams execute secure and reliable operations in an industry that
+project spend runs into the billions.
+
+### Space Operations
+
+Epsilon3 are modernising the industry by leveraging telemetry data to digitise paper procedures in space operations.
+Their customers need to run testing and operational procedures in real time. Using Epsilon3's solution means people can
+collaborate online as a team instead of being siloed and separated, an increasingly important requirement in a post-pandemic working world.
+Epsilon3 are powering an industry where reliability is a must. In the space industry missions cost billions and need to run reliably.
+

+
+The stakes are high when working on projects where failure entails huge potential financial losses. Epsilon3's software saves
+operators time and reduces errors to improve complex operations. Their customers are already using their software and successfully
+sending satellites into space, and are about to use Epsilon3's software for an operational Rocket Launch. As a result, their
+software reputation for improving the quality standard for complex operations has led to demand from other industries.
+The team now have enquiries from clients in the robotics, logistics and medical equipment sectors who need a structured and standardised
+way of running procedures and keeping audit trails.
+
+**Moving fast in regulated markets**
+
+The team has a background in engineering from Northrop, Google, and SpaceX and understand the technical benefits Postgres offers as a
+battle tested open-source relational database.
+
+Whilst the team know they want to use Postgres, they also understand setting up a scalable back-end takes time and must be maintained.
+Realtime functionality is also a key for their customers so they can see how running procedures are progressing in real time.
+
+As a startup, Epsilon3 need to move fast AND scale. They require security, reliability, and performance.
+
+The space industry is highly regulated adding complexity. For example, in the USA deployments must be in an ITAR-compliant way like AWS
+GovCloud while customers in countries outside the USA may need to host their data within their own country.
+This means that Epsilon3 must be able to offer flexible hosting options, including on premises deployment.

+  <p>Billion dollar missions need to run reliably and securely.</p>
+  <p>
+    We didn’t just want something that works, we wanted a solution implementing best practices. We
+    also needed a setup that we could self-host to meet compliance needs and allow on-premises
+    deployment options for our customers.
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    We use Supabase because they give us an open-source scalable back-end built by database experts
+    that we can self-host.
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    Supabase takes out the mental effort from our back-end infrastructure so we can focus on our
+    customers needs.

+
+**Supabase gives Postgres users Supa-powers**
+
+The team implemented a self hosted Supabase setup. For a customer in production in the USA this means they can use AWS infrastructure with
+the Supabase API powering an RDS Postgres instance. This gives the perfect balance of rapid development, reduced DevOps, and flexible hosting
+options - crucial for their customers. As Supabase uniquely offers realtime for Postgres they are able to allow their customers to see updates
+from running procedures. Supabase also offers well supported client libraries that make row level security easy to use, which is crucial for the
+Epsilon3 team to deliver on their future roadmap. Finally all this is easy and fast for the team to set up, even when self hosting which means
+the team can focus on what they do best - helping their customers run complex operations smoothly.
+
+With this implementation Epsilon3 get all the benefits of Postgres plus the smooth developer experience and support that Supabase is known for,
+without making compromises to meet compliance needs.

+
+### Self-hosted Supabase, a superpower
+
+Self-hosting Supabase means the crew at Epsilon3 are able to move fast to revolutionise space operations securely and reliably in realtime
+whilst staying compliant. The team are now seeing demand from other industries and are confident in their scaling capability because
+they know it's just Postgres under the hood. Check out the Epsilon3 website to learn more about the team and their OS for space operations.
