Prisma Postgres is a game-changing new serverless DB — tightly integrated to the Prisma ORM for amazing DX, and built with unique unikernel tech to eliminate cold starts. Start for free, only pay for what you use — prototype, launch, and scale with Prisma.
Hey Product Hunters!
I am beyond excited to write this.
At Prisma we’ve been working hard over the past 8 years to make it easy to work with databases, by delivering the most loved Node.js ORM on the market. We get to come to work every day knowing that we’re helping the maker community build amazing apps, and that’s a great feeling.
Today we announce the next major phase of the Prisma vision: Prisma Postgres.
We are using all the deep expertise we accumulated over the past decade to build and deliver the *next generation* of serverless database.
It brings all the best parts of serverless, while leaving out the annoying parts (*cough* cold starts, *cough* complex pricing), and it is tightly integrated with our ORM to bring all the power right into your code editor.
Add a cache strategy to a single query, with one line of code. Stream database change events with another line of code. And there’s so much more to come.
Our mission remains the same: make databases easy. Now we get to do that on a whole new level with Prisma Postgres.
Oh yeah, did I mention you can create tens of databases, totally free?
Try it out and let us know what you think!
