Supabase free tier is hard to beat. Worth checking out!
I would recommend supabase, used it in my side projects, couldn't be happier.
You'd...use Supabase?
Actually, why not use Supabase now, outta curiosity?

I have to second that. Supabase rocks!
Supabase kinda does this.
Can you speak more about the issues with Supabase you describe?
Supabase: are you listening?
Yes Supabase seems like a good bet. Parse is a good comparison: if you relied on them you can now host it yourself.
Supabase offers a lot more than edge functions (db, auth, etc). Take a look at their website
I cannot find an "about" page. What is Supabase?
AFAIK I have not run supabase in my own infra but they seem to allow you to do so and are quite good citizens publishing all their built tools on top of pg or whatever and as far as I remember with sane licenses.
I love supabase, neon are new-ish but a great alterantive for hosted serverless databases (they also did a great staging-db-for-pr's) when launched that we integrated at work quite soon while on beta and saved a lot of headaches of introducing new features that touched database before

Supabase gives you a full Postgres database, we position ourselves as a Firebase alternative because we offer a few other bells-and-whistles. The database is just postgres[0] and so it has more compatibility than bit.io offered[1]

[1] bit.io compatability: https://docs.bit.io/docs/supported-sql
how does directus compare to supabase? anyone compare the two..
you might find Supabase[0] is closer to what you need. I'd recommend giving them a look, that is, if MySQL compat isn't a requirement of course, since Supabase is all PostgresSQL.
disclosure: not a employee or investor in Supabase, but I sure am a fan.
I’m curious why Supabase didn’t suit your needs, especially since you’re looking for Postgres support?

well before there was supabase I would use Firebase
so it would serve Google well if they matched what supabase is doing or bought them out
Check out Supabase, you can have your cake and eat it too.
Pocketbase may be a Supabase alternative for you then: https://www.programonaut.com/pocketbase-vs-supabase-an-in-de...

What are the issues with self hosting Supabase?
I'm having a bit of difficulty understanding what supabase is.
I thought it was a Postgres database that gave you a PostgREST HTTP API interface.
If that's the case... what does the javascript library do?
I thought Supabase was the Open Source Firebase alternative?
Supabase and Directus are my go-to BaaS offerings. In terms of developing server side code(custom backend logic) Directus is still better than supabase. Also the Admin Interface is more capable. However in terms of performance supabase is of course way better. Lucky that we have such good options nowadays.
Supabase user here. Ive been happy with Supabase. It feels like the recent launches have been underwhelming.
I am really pumped for Neon and think they are doing something more differentiated.
Any comparison with Supabase, which is also a backend-as-a-service? [0]
I think the most important reason is that supabase is a good product. Marketing is just a plus.
Yeah, supabase is great. I think if they could get the auth story a little more polished (it "works", but its definitely weak/buggy in some aspects compared to alternatives, and hard to use), and made some advanced use cases with Prisma easier to do (or better documented) since that's such a common pairing, they'd be even easier to recommend.
Right now I still use Supabase because I think they're a solid "Postgresql as a service" offering, but they're just SO CLOSE to being so much more than that. They have all the pieces, they just don't all work quite the way folks expect. They'll get there, I'm sure.
Some may disagree but in my experience Supabase was definitely challenging to selfhost. Don't get me wrong; I'm pretty confident with selfhosting but Supabase was definitely on the hard side.
Pocketbase being literally single-binary doesn't make Supabase look good either, although funtionalities differ.
Never used Supabase before but I'm very much comfortable with their underlying stack. I use a combination of postgres, PostgREST, PLv8 and Auth0 to achieve nearly the same thing.
Supabase also offers data (DB as a service).
I wonder if that means Supabase can solve the (separate) user storage problem[1].

Supabase is a frontend and API wrapper around a normal Postgres instance. It does nothing to the database itself and is not an alternative to AlloyDB.
Supabase integrates a lot of the open source tools listed here. A Postgrs backend as a service offering. Just started using it. Very impressed.
Friendly reminder that Supabase is really cool, and if you haven't tried it out you should do it (everything can be self hosted and they have generous free tiers!)
How different is this from Supabase Realtime?
Supabase is great and I’ve used it for a number of projects over the years both with a backend alongside it or direct from the client with RLS.
There are some weird edges (well really just faff) around auth with the JS library but if nothing else they are by far the cheapest hosted SQL offering I can find so any faff you don’t want to deal with there’s an excellent database right there to allow you to roll your own (assuming you have a backend server alongside it)
Please explain to me what's Supabase, but make it rhyme.
Supabase is a great place,
For hosting your database.
It's open source and free,
So you can use it with glee.
It's simple to get started,
No infrastructure to be charted.
It's a hosted platform,
So you can use it with no qualm.
I'd say Supabase is great at spinning up CRUD apps. If anything, this article could be summarized as "Because Val Town is much more than a CRUD app, they had a harder time with Supabase than the average."
I've used Supabase for some production level projects, and it's seriously a very good starting point which you can scale up to mid-tier levels. Brand new ones with no customers can easily leverage their free tier.
Seems like they are: https://boards.greenhouse.io/supabase
Supabase is an open source Firebase alternative. We're building the _features_ of Firebase using open source tools: Postgres Database, Authentication, auto-generated APIs (PostgREST), Realtime subscriptions, and File Storage.
more details here: https://supabase.com/docs/architecture
Supabase has arguably a better alternative, which uses logical replication and can be used outside of Supabase.
Supabase has certainly been on my radar and is cool... but I haven't seen any indication that it's even remotely as popular as "this generation's database".
Does anyone have any opposing data points?
Supabase developer here -- I'm excited to use this myself!
A supabase alternative. Partly non-profit. There's just a handful of edge cases they prefer not to deal with. Working on it for weeks now and it's kinda fun.
What makes you think this isn't exactly the direction that supabase is going in?
for what it's worth i use supabase because it's the fastest way to get from 0-1 for app development. most backend stuff for getting off the ground is not very interesting so getting the graphql api, oauth integration, db migrations, some user authorization story for free is what i'm looking for from supabase.
When did supabase start supporting analytical worklods?
