Supabase

emphasize its versatility and ecosystem fit; the makers of

Neon

point to smooth developer workflows; and the team behind

Dodo Payments

cite dependable, production-grade behavior. Minor critiques are rare, with many users calling it their default choice over legacy alternatives.

Postgres is rock-solid. It handles complex data relationships gracefully and gives us the querying power we need as we scale. For relational data, it’s hands down the best choice for us.

PGVector's native vector operations with PostgreSQL's ACID compliance works perfectly. We're storing millions of embeddings with sub-millisecond similarity search using cosine distance. The async connection pooling handles concurrent connections, while the vector indexing makes our query super fast. Having vector search, full-text search, and relational data in one database eliminates the complexity of managing multiple data stores.

Postgres was the second database we added, and honestly, it needs no introduction. This OSS RDBMS is massive, reliable, and just incredible to work with.
