Use two connection strings: - DATABASE_URL: Pooled connection for Prisma Client - DIRECT_URL: Direct connection for Prisma Migrate The pooled connection uses PgBouncer for up to 10K connections. Direct connection required for migrations (DDL operations). ### Drizzle with Neon Serverless Driver Use Drizzle ORM with Neon's serverless HTTP driver for edge/serverless environments. Two driver options: - neon-http: Single queries over HTTP (fastest for one-off queries) - neon-serverless: WebSocket for transactions and sessions ### Connection Pooling with PgBouncer Neon provides built-in connection pooling via PgBouncer. Key limits: - Up to 10,000 concurrent connections to pooler - Connections still consume underlying Postgres connections - 7 connections reserved for Neon superuser Use pooled endpoint for application, direct for migrations. ## ⚠️ Sharp Edges | Issue | Severity | Solution | |-------|----------|----------| | Issue | high | See docs | | Issue | high | See docs | | Issue | high | See docs | | Issue | medium | See docs | | Issue | medium | See docs | | Issue | low | See docs | | Issue | medium | See docs | | Issue | high | See docs |

supabase-postgres-best-practices
supabase/agent-skills
Postgres best practices maintained by Supabase, for Postgres running anywhere. Load this skill BEFORE writing or changing anything that lives in a Postgres database: creating or altering tables and columns (including choosing column types), schema design, migrations and declarative schema files, RLS policies and the tests that verify them, indexes, triggers, database functions, queues and scheduled jobs (pg_cron, pgmq), vector/semantic search (pgvector), and restoring dumps (pg_restore) or importing data. Also load it when diagnosing slow queries, high CPU, timeouts, EXPLAIN plans, connection exhaustion, locking, bloat, or rows visible to the wrong user or tenant. This is not just a performance guide — schema, migration, security, and SQL authoring tasks need these rules too, even for a one-column change or a single query.
