 Serverless Postgres is PostgreSQL you never provision or manage: the platform allocates compute on demand and bills you for usage, not for a server size you picked up front. One label, though, covers very different products, and they differ on two things that decide your cost and your latency: **what they bill for**, and **whether compute sleeps when idle**.

Every price and behavior was checked against the provider's own pages in July 2026, and vendor claims (including Prisma's) are labeled as such.

 No. Cold starts only exist where compute suspends: Neon takes a few hundred milliseconds to activate from idle (its own docs' figure), and Aurora Serverless v2 takes about 15 seconds to resume from 0 ACUs. PlanetScale and paid Supabase avoid cold starts by never suspending, which you pay for as always-on instances, and Prisma Postgres states its unikernel architecture has no suspended state at all (a vendor claim, ours).

-For most side projects, a free tier covers it entirely: Prisma Postgres includes 200,000 operations, 500 MB and 50 databases per month with no credit card, and Neon includes 100 CU-hours and 0.5 GB per project across 100 projects. The first paid dollar differs by model: $5/month buys an always-on single node on PlanetScale, $10/month buys 1M operations on Prisma Postgres, and Neon bills pure usage with no minimum.

   <Accordion title="Is Neon still maintained after the Databricks acquisition?">
 Yes. Databricks agreed to acquire Neon on May 14, 2025 (reported at about $1 billion) and committed to continued investment in the platform; Neon's own docs describe it as continuing as a standalone serverless Postgres platform. As of July 2026, Neon operates under its own brand with active pricing and docs, positioned as complementary to Databricks Lakebase. Those are stated intentions rather than guarantees, which is worth weighing for long-horizon platform bets.
