THE CONNECTIONS BENEATH EVERYTHING
Business knowledge connected.
Evidence within reach.
Cygnus is the backend and database foundation that helps NatusAI connect information, preserve its context and make it useful to people and applications.
Keep business knowledge connected
Represent customers, products, documents and decisions through their relationships, so teams and applications can follow the context behind a fact.
Technical detail
Cygnus provides typed graph structures and geographic data in the same engine, so relationships and location-aware context can be queried together.
Keep history in the picture
Store information that changes over time and reconstruct what was known at a chosen point, making change easier to understand and discuss.
Technical detail
Time-series data is stored natively, with point-in-time inspection and server-side sampling for analysis.
Connect applications cleanly
Keep the data model and the operations that use it close together, so applications can rely on a consistent foundation.
Technical detail
One object model spans storage and application code. Exposed functions become HTTP endpoints, with generated SDKs for client integration.
Find answers with context
Search by meaning, relationships and relevant history so NatusAI can bring the information around an answer into view.
Technical detail
Vector search uses locally generated embeddings, supporting relevant retrieval without depending on an external embedding service.
Support authorised assistants
Make selected backend capabilities available to assistants and applications while keeping access within the permissions that govern your system.
Technical detail
The built-in MCP server publishes selected functions as typed tools that agents can discover and call under the backend’s permission system.
Build on what you control
Keep the backend and database close to your application, with deployment and data choices shaped around your organisation’s ownership priorities.
Technical detail
Storage and backend execution run together in a self-hosted engine that can be shaped around application and operational needs.
