Introduction to Prisma

Prisma ORM is an open-source ORM that provides fast, type-safe access to Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, and other databases, and runs smoothly across Node.js, Bun, and Deno.

Prisma Postgres is a fully managed PostgreSQL database that scales to zero, integrates with Prisma ORM and Prisma Studio, and includes a generous free tier.
