Snapshot

Why this vendor is on watch

Serverless MySQL database platform with branching, non-blocking schema changes, and unlimited scalability.

PlanetScale is strongest when Startups needing zero-downtime deployments and Teams using Prisma/Drizzle ORM can validate the workflow on the free plan before adding paid seats. Upgrade only after the free-plan limit blocks a repeated team workflow.
