Summary

We're thrilled to announce the general availability of the EdgeDB Cloud Free Tier, marking a significant step forward in making EdgeDB more accessible and competitive. EdgeDB Cloud is a place where you host your EdgeDB instances with minimum fuss, featuring a CLI for effortless installation and management, a web UI for controlling database aspects, fully integrated auth, simple and secure configuration, great performance, and open-source availability. The free tier offers a basic "Paid-tier" plan at $39/month, comparing favorably to other cloud databases like Supabase ($25/month + $15/month add-on), Neon ($52/month), and PlanetScale ($39/month). EdgeDB Cloud has been benchmarked against popular JavaScript ORM libraries Prisma and Drizzle, demonstrating superior performance with low latency (2.9ms) and high developer convenience.
