Supabase

Is it something I need to worry about in my app? I see that supabase has connection pooling available, and it's enabled for my database.

HI <@!912738052386988052> connection pooling (and pgBouncer) can be a tricky subject. But, for the most part if you are using the Supabase client, because it uses PostgREST under the covers, you shouldn't need to worry about the the pool connection string or pgBouncer as PostgREST establishes that pool of connections and manages it ...

See: https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest

Where the pool and pgBouncer comes into play is in the serverless world and the people at Prisma have some great docs and video that explains pooling at why it is a problem in serverless
