The creators of Vitess co-founded PlanetScale to make open source Vitess easier to deploy and manage. We've also added in a TON of great quality of life features to improve the database management experience: git-like workflow with database branching, online DDL with deploy requests + safe migrations, advanced query metrics, schema recommendations, vectors, and more. “Now they don’t have to reinvent the wheel. A lot of companies facing this scaling problem end up solving it badly in-house and now there’s a way to solve that problem by using us to help.” - Jiten Vaidya, PlanetScale co-founder

✨ We are getting very close to a public beta for PlanetScale's vector search and storage solution! An ACID-compliant vector database that has a real on-disk index (SPANN), proper SQL semantics (WHERE, JOIN, subqueries), and both pre- and post-filtering. Message me if you'd like access to the private beta.

Migrating your database to a new provider is a delicate and stressful process. Our proof-of-concept phase is designed to instill confidence that PlanetScale is the right solution via thorough testing and fulfillment of your success criteria. If you want to see sharding, we shard. If you want to see no downtime schema changes with TBs of data, no problem. Our Solutions Engineers work closely with you to show you what you need to see so that you can feel confident during the migration process.
