"the semantic analysis we perform in Vitess is advanced enough that, through careful integration with the upstream MySQL server and its information schema, it can be used to statically type the AST of the SQL expressions we were executing." planetscale.com/blog/faster-in…

past few weeks I haven’t gone a day without using claude code/@cline/etc at least once. seems unlikely that will stop being the case?

I’ll be sharing regular updates on two products: our sharded Postgres offering, and the high-performance, resilient Postgres product we shipped today.

The project nobody has seen yet is Nova. Vitess for Postgres. Built from first principles, not using Vitess. We have spent 4 years sharding some of the world's largest databases. Those learnings will inform an architecture bespoke to Postgres. Only PlanetScale can do this.

If you're in Seattle and run 1TB+ on Postgres I will come to your office and bring a mountain of merch in return for you telling our CTO Nick Van Wiggeren all your db problems (you can tell me your personal problems)

This is one of the things I’ve been doing at Cursor! We’ve migrated our largest database workload, the `codebase` cluster, from AWS Aurora Limitless to PlanetScale. The cluster contains syncing metadata for all the user codebases that we index. Why did we migrate from Aurora

and why PlanetScale, you might ask? because they care about the same things we do: performance, reliability, and shipping great products. plenty of companies want to partner. few know how to move past corp dev meetings and actually ship 🚢

Cat's out of the bag. Cloudflare is ~3x faster for many workloads due to a series of fixes they've shipped in the last 5 days x.com/theo/status/19…
