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!

@masump - great question! Currently Prisma Postgres allocates a fixed amount of compute to your database. We are working on a system to automatically allocate additional compute for each concurrent request. We will release a blog post with all the details when this goes live.

@sorenbs Grats on the launch! Great service

The pricing per query is a bit scary. But postgres+accelerate seems to have a very clear value prop! Good luck with the launch!

@koslib Hey Kostas! Thanks for the comment, we also include controls to be able to stay on top of your budget. We heard numerous times that people want flexibility and easy scaling, as long as they don't get surprises on their bill. We're doing something rather new with this, trying to build a model that creates the *very best* DX -- so we'll be keeping a close eye on things to make sure it's received that way. Your feedback helps us do that -- thanks! 🙏

Thanks Kostas! We had a long conversation about this on Twitter just today. Worth a read: https://x.com/sorenbs/status/188... tl;dr: We allocate additional compute per query, and if you run really complex queries, they will get slow. We provide you the tools needed to optimize. We think this is a better trade-off than billing you an arbitrary amount.

@sneub I need a greenfield project to try this out then :D
