Using the Prisma Data Proxy with Vercel, Prisma, Next.js, and PostgreSQL In this video, you will learn about how the Early Access version of the Prisma Data Proxy solves database connection management in serverless environments. The Prisma Data Proxy is an external connection pooler that sits between your app and your database so you can reliably use relational databases in serverless environments. In the video, Daniel deploys a Next.js app built with Prisma and PostgreSQL to Vercel and runs a load test to show the database connection limit exhausted. He then imports the project to the Prisma Data Platform and configures the Prisma Data Proxy to eliminate database connection exhaustion.
