@apps/blog/content/blog/app-hosting-platforms-with-managed-postgres-2026/index.mdx:
- Line 30: Update the deployment guidance in the comparison table and the
existing-repository FAQ to instruct readers to run their configured build
command before `npx prisma deploy`, so the required frontend and API artifacts
are available for packaging.
- Line 26: Update the opening comparison and heroImageAlt to distinguish
Railway’s PostgreSQL templates as unmanaged, and state in Railway’s trade-offs
that customers handle their configuration and maintenance; keep any
managed-database claims limited to providers or offerings that are managed.
- Line 48: Update the Fly.io entry in the managed Postgres comparison to state
its documented PITR capability, and align the Fly.io trade-off, PITR
recommendations, and FAQ with that capability. Add the Fly restore documentation
to the article’s sources.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winUse neutral maturity wording for Prisma Compute.
The docs-writer guidance identifies Prisma Compute as early-stage and prohibits general-availability claims for early-stage products. This sentence gives readers a definitive production-maturity signal that conflicts with that guidance. Remove the maturity assertion until the guidance and product status are aligned.
Suggested fix
