I am trying to make an architectural decision and I cannot figure out if Supabase bills by Database write (as firebase did). Will "Database Egress" be modulated by Database writes? 💵

Egress is all data going back to the client, this would include status and if you have .select() on insert/update then response data. It likely includes header info in response also if Supabase is like other companies, but they don't say that I have seen. It does not include the data going to the database from the client.

Dear @garyaustin thank you so much. So theoretically an insert/update with no ".select()" would result in zero data egress?

No. You at least have http 200 response type stuff and probably the headers. But they don’t make that clear. Last time I checked a bunch of providers like AWS ( which Supabase uses) those where billed as egress
