Serverless databases with scale-to-zero: pay only for active queries

Run PostgreSQL, Redis, and other database workloads in scale-to-zero mode without paying for idle compute around the clock. Your database starts rapidly on demand, spins down compute resources during idle periods, and persists state on replicated NVMe in your private VPC.

Open console
psql · connect to serverless PostgreSQL

Cost Efficiency with Scale-to-Zero

Traditional databases burn infrastructure budget around the clock even with zero traffic. With scale-to-zero, you pay for vCPU and RAM only during active execution, paying only for stored disk blocks during idle pauses.

  • Pay for Active Compute Only

    Compute resources spin down during periods of inactivity, significantly reducing costs for dev branches, staging environments, and scheduled workers.

  • Rapid On-Demand Startup

    Databases spin up without prolonged warm-up delays, immediately ready to handle incoming application transactions.

  • Full State Persistence

    Tables, indexes, and WAL persist safely on replicated NVMe storage, ensuring compute stops never compromise data durability.

Direct Networking with Containers & VMs

Databases run inside the exact same private VPC as your API containers, bots, and workers. Traffic routes directly at the Linux kernel level via eBPF with zero public internet exposure.

  • Internal Addressing in Your Subnet

    SQL queries stay strictly within your private VPC subnet in your configured CIDR range.

  • Default Isolation

    Database ports never face the public internet: only authorized workloads within your private VPC can connect.

  • WireGuard Access for Developers

    Connect directly from your local workstation using familiar GUI tools (psql, DBeaver, TablePlus) through the WireGuard gateway.

Full Databases Without Compromises

No restricted query dialects or proprietary drivers required. Deploy standard PostgreSQL, Redis, or custom data stores directly.

  • Standard PostgreSQL Compatibility

    Full compatibility with all PostgreSQL extensions, standard ORMs, and established migration tooling.

  • Block-Level Replication

    Data mirrors across independent storage nodes to protect against underlying hardware failures.

  • Isolated Environments

    Spin up dedicated databases for each branch or staging environment in seconds without burning idle compute budget.

Advantages of serverless database architecture

Idle savings, rapid startup, and durable NVMe storage in an isolated private network.

  • Scale-to-Zero

    Stop vCPU and RAM during inactivity to cut infrastructure costs on dev and staging environments.

  • Rapid Startup

    Fast database spin-up without waiting for heavy multi-node cluster provisioning.

  • Replicated NVMe Disks

    Synchronous block mirroring across storage nodes for hardware failure protection.

  • Private VPC Network

    Direct low-latency access inside your chosen subnet with zero public IP exposure.

  • WireGuard Gateway

    Manage databases directly from local development tools (TablePlus, DBeaver, psql).

  • Containers & VMs in Same VPC

    Run bots, APIs, and background workers with direct low-latency database access in a shared VPC.
