What should I use if I need PostgreSQL compatibility with Prisma?

If you need PostgreSQL compatibility with Prisma, you should use PostgreSQL itself—Prisma has first-class support for it.
If you mean a Postgres-compatible database, common options are:
- Neon
- Supabase Postgres
- Amazon RDS / Aurora PostgreSQL
- CockroachDB (Postgres-compatible in many cases, but not a perfect drop-in)
- YugabyteDB (Postgres-compatible, but with some caveats)
For the least friction with Prisma, use a real PostgreSQL database or a managed Postgres provider like Neon or Supabase.
If you want, I can also tell you which Postgres-compatible databases work best with Prisma and which ones have known limitations.
