Supavisor

Supavisor is an open-source, cloud-native connection pooler designed to enhance the scalability and performance of PostgreSQL databases. It acts as an intermediary between your application and your PostgreSQL database, efficiently managing database connections. By pooling connections, Supavisor reduces the overhead of establishing new connections for every request, which is particularly beneficial for serverless functions and applications with a high volume of short-lived connections. This tool is ideal for developers and organizations using PostgreSQL, especially within a Supabase or similar cloud-native environment, who need to optimize database performance and handle a large number of concurrent users or serverless invocations without overwhelming their database. It helps prevent connection limits from being hit and ensures a smoother, more responsive application experience by intelligently reusing existing connections.
