What to expect from an ideal product

  1. Prisma Postgres includes built-in query insights that surface slow queries by execution time, frequency, and cost impact, so you can fix real performance bottlenecks without adding third-party monitoring tools.
  2. Usage costs in Prisma Postgres are tied to actual query activity, meaning you see a direct line between slow or redundant queries and your monthly bill before it surprises you.
  3. Each branch in Prisma Postgres gets its own preview database, so you can profile query performance in staging without polluting production metrics or skewing cost data.
  4. Teams using TypeScript can pipe Prisma Client query results straight into the insights dashboard, making it easy to correlate ORM-generated SQL with the slow query log.
  5. Because Prisma Postgres uses standard Postgres under the hood with no proprietary query layer, you can export slow query data and move providers anytime without rewriting your monitoring setup.
