I found a lot of mentions of "Postgresql" in repository: https://github.com/ydb-platform/ydb/search?q=postgresql

Is it build on top of PG ?

YDB is developed from ground up. We think about postgres compatibility layer, that's why you see 'postgres' in source code.

it seems not. they have compatibility for querying external PG dbs (YQL query engine), I thing that's the reason for that.

I'd almost guess so. Yandex is one of the largest production users of pg.
