Serverless functions made easy

When used with the ORM, the Data Proxy manages a connection pool to avoid that youre running out of connections during traffic spikes. It also drastically reduces Prisma Clients bundle size and makes your Serverless function start up faster.

Collaborate safely with your team

Invite your colleagues and collaborate with appropriate permissions. Manage and verify your application data in the cloud with the Data Browser. Then test and troubleshoot Prisma queries directly from your browser using the Query Console.
