Leerob, why hasn't vercel shipped postgresql db's with connection pooling built in?
I know you have the marketplace and I could connect to PlanetScale... but I don't really want to. Why should I have to switch to MySQL from PostgreSQL?
Or even a better question: why can't I use a single host provider for my whole app?
- craigkerstiens 4y agoYou can always provision a Crunchy Bridge DB and connect to it, we've got a ton of customers using Vercel and connecting their app to us. With built-in connection pooling it tends to work quite well.
- leerob 4y agoThis is a great option :)
- leerob 4y agoWe also have Postgres database providers in our marketplace like Supabase. Have you tried them before?
- jverrecchia 4y agoI also think serverless-friendly managed DBs are the missing piece of the puzzle of Vercel's offering. Would be so nice to have the whole stack hosted on Vercel instead of needing external platforms for that last bit, and complicated pooling setups. Hopefully that's somewhere in your guys' roadmap!
