DBHost

What it does

Managed PostgreSQL for indie hackers, hobby devs, small startups, and devtools builders who keep buying VPS boxes just to run Postgres. Every database ships with PgBouncer pooling, daily backups (30-day retention), a REST API, and a CLI. Provision in 60 seconds. From $0/mo, flat pricing.

Managed PostgreSQL hosting for developers. Postgres without the side project. For indie hackers, hobby devs, and small teams who'd rather ship than babysit a Postgres box. Every database includes PgBouncer pooling and 30-day backups. Pro and Business add the REST API and published CLI, with flat plan pricing and no usage meter.

For indie hackers, hobby devs, and small teams who'd rather ship than babysit a Postgres box. Every database includes PgBouncer pooling and 30-day backups. Pro and Business add the REST API and published CLI, with flat plan pricing and no usage meter. From provisioning to monitoring, DBHost handles the complexity so you can focus on shipping. Spin up a new PostgreSQL database in seconds. DBHost creates the database, provisions credentials, and wires PgBouncer before the new instance becomes active. Built-in PgBouncer on every database. Multiplexes connections for lower overhead and better performance. Daily pg_dump backups with 30-day retention and encrypted off-host storage. Trigger an…from dbhost.app

  Serverless Postgres2024 · github.com · ▲159

  This is a MVP for Serverless Postgres. 1/ It uses Fly.io[0], which can automatically pause your database after all connections are released (and start it again when new connections join). 2/ It uses Oriole[1], a Postgres extension with experimental support for S3 / Decoupled Storage[2]. 3/ It uses Tigris[3], Globally Distributed S3-Compatible Object Storage. Oriole will automatically backup the data to Tigris using background workers. I wouldn't recommend using this in production, but I think it's in a good spot to provoke some discussion and ideas. You can get it running…

  PgDog – Scale Postgres without changing the appFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲326

  Hey HN! Lev and Justin here, authors of PgDog (https://pgdog.dev/), a connection pooler, load balancer and database sharder for PostgreSQL. If you build apps with a lot of traffic, you know the first thing to break is the database. We are solving this with a network proxy that works without requiring application code changes or database migrations. Our post from last year: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44099187 The most important update: we are in production. Sharding is used a lot, with direct-to-shard queries (one shard per query) working pretty much…

  Supavisor – a Postgres connection pooler written in Elixir2023 · github.com · ▲149

  hey hn, supabase ceo here this is a postgres connection pooler. it’s similar to pgbouncer, but built with Elixir and specifically designed for multi-tenancy. it’s still under development, but it’s at a stage where we can gather a feedback from the community and you can try it yourself. we aren’t using this in production yet, but aiming to deploy it for a subset of databases in the next 2 months. We have the following benchmarks (details in the readme): - Elixir Cluster maintaining 400 connections to a single Postgres database - 1_000_000 clients connecting to the Elixir cluster - Sending…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
