    Maybe. We observed that people migrated off as soon as the applications went into production or were serious, as the database api approach did not actually give them all the flexib…

    Prisma has pivoted to be “just” a Node.JS ORM a few years ago (I work there). You can still use it to build an API of course, but you will need some additional tool or libraries.

    Wonderful insight into that world.

    Very relevant to me right now. But doesn’t the “ What About the Details?” section acknowledge that you will many of the other metrics later anyway for different people, projects an…

    What prevents the problem from coming back if you stop watching for that?

    Thank you so much for doing the research and explaining this. Then the "German" way of doing things is actually _the_ way of doing things, and the US just hase some additional stuf…

    Important nuance, thanks for letting me know.. I was under the impression you only "got" the copyright by doing that. Do you "forfeit" anything by not doing it as soon/early as pos…

    How does the copyright system in Luxembourg work? In Germany for example (this will ignore a lot of nuance!), there is no applying or denying of copyright. If you created something…

    Prisma often does multiple queries when getting some specific data, the first only leading to the second and so on. But we might very well get there one day. You are not the only o…

    It made sense at the time. We do not only support Node, but also have community Clients in Go, Python or Rust. Right now we are moving more and more parts from a Node-API library o…

    That is only used in tests :) The query engine uses this: https://github.com/prisma/quaint/blob/6532d69b5aec007ad06ac6... (I work at Prisma, could have mentioned that earlier)

    Prisma does not actually use node-postgres, but a Rust PostgreSQL driver. Prisma will not be able to use the Neon serverless driver.

    I am not sure I am following. We can have either parallel queries in a transaction where the order does not matter, or we can have them serialized - but then the next query will on…

    Yes. You only have to open these connections once on the first execution of that function (cold start), any future request that hit this warm function will have 5 open connections …

    Comment #33910904

    That I understand. But of course for the user of the driver it might be fine if that is 2 or more HTTP requests. I expect that is how PlanetScale does it in their transaction imple…

    Comment #33910892

    Ok, so to make that explicit: If I want to do 5 parallel queries on my serverless function I should still have a connection pool size of 5 in my application, which will be fine as …

    The "How it works" section surprised me - I did not expect to see Websockets there. Other serverless drivers or database APIs (PlanetScale Serverless Driver, AWS RDS Proxy or Prism…
