I think this quote summarizes our plans nicely: Prisma's vision is to democratize the custom data access layer used by companies like Facebook, Twitter and Airbnb and make it available to development teams and organizations of all sizes.
The open-source ORM we're launching today will of course remain open-source and we'll keep investing into it since it's be the foundation for the commercial tools that folks will be able to use on top.
- goliatone 5y agoHow does “democratize the custom data access layer” make money?
- vptr 5y agoI have no idea what this means either. Sounds like a bunch of buzzwords about nothing.
- nikolasburk 5y agoIt means that Prisma will provide a data access layer (we call it "application data platform" [1]) similar to the custom data access layers built by big companies [2] (e.g. TAO by Facebook or Strato by Twitter) that enables application developers to better access their databases. We've explained that in the blog post here in the "Open-source, and beyond"-section [3]. Does that help? :) [1] https://imgur.com/O1lwo0v.png https://imgur.com/O1lwo0v.png [2] https://imgur.com/Hb9VOWN.png https://imgur.com/Hb9VOWN.png [3] https://www.prisma.io/blog/prisma-the-complete-orm-inw24qjeawmb#open-source-and-beyond https://www.prisma.io/blog/prisma-the-complete-orm-inw24qjea...
- Boxxed 5y agoI think we all appreciate the links but unless I'm missing something, no, it doesn't help -- what's the plan to make money? That blog post doesn't mention anything along those lines at all.
