Zak Wilson (owner of doomed startup) pointed out to me that Clustrix is the next Y Company to surface. Judging from the dates on their blog, they are probably a member of the Y Combinator Winter Founders Program. Their website is essentially empty, at least to the public. They do, however, have a help wanted page.
News of this company started on the reddit-sphere when dooka made a comment implying that Clustrix was a good company that was started by business types and not hackers. Paul Graham then responded, "Clustrix at this point is 100% hackers." Who are (or were) these business types and where'd they go?
It also seems that the first post on their blog, titled "Coming to Mountain View," which I saw last night, has vanished. This was the post that mentioned Y Combinator. (There are some pictures which were a part of the post that are still online.) I can only assume it was deleted. But why?
So what does Clustrix do? I don't know. I've dropped the company an email, but heard no response yet.

By the way, you can view the original Mountain View blog post by adding their blog to your Bloglines. It'll be the oldest one.
http://www.thinkature.com/ is a Y Combinator startup from WFP 2006, presumable. I found it on http://www.flagr.com/maps/founders.
Clustrix is definitely 100% hackers and is doing something with database software.
