Neon

Neon provides a fully managed, serverless Postgres platform, allowing you to build and scale applications without managing database infrastructure. It's 100% Postgres, not a fork, ensuring complete compatibility with the database developers already trust. The platform is engineered to accelerate your development lifecycle and reduce operational overhead.

Key features that set it apart include:

• Instant Scaling: Databases are provisioned in milliseconds. The platform automatically scales resources based on load and scales down to zero when idle, significantly cutting costs.
• Effortless Branching: Instantly create isolated database branches for development, testing, and CI/CD pipelines. This copy-on-write feature allows for safe schema migrations and feature testing without impacting production.
• Modern Developer Workflow: Integrate seamlessly with your existing stack, including Next.js, Prisma, and Drizzle. Manage thousands of databases programmatically using the Neon API.
• Edge & AI Ready: A specialized serverless driver ensures lightning-fast queries over HTTP, while support for HNSW indexing makes it highly efficient for vector search in AI applications.
