Turso (SQLite)

Distributed SQLite (Edge DB) · Commercial (open-source libSQL core)

A distributed, edge-optimized SQLite database built on libSQL with global replicas for low-latency reads and serverless-friendly connections.

We choose Turso for edge-first apps, multi-region reads, and lightweight relational workloads that benefit from SQLite ergonomics with cloud scale.

How We Use It

  • Edge-first apps needing global read performance
  • Lightweight relational data with serverless
  • Caches and feature storage near the user

Databases & Storage

Why this matters: A reliable data layer is the backbone of performance, data integrity, and scale—without heavy ops overhead. Reliable data layers underpin fast, scalable web apps. We select managed, developer-friendly databases and storage that pair well with serverless/edge architectures, reduce ops overhead, and provide clear scaling paths. Preferred defaults: PlanetScale for MySQL workloads; Turso for edge-first SQLite; Upstash for Redis/queues; Vercel Blob for simple storage.
