If you've been excited about our work of removing the Rust engines from Prisma ORM but hesitated trying it out because it was in an Early Access (EA) phase, now is a great time for you to get your hands on the Rust-free Prisma ORM version.
This major architectural change has moved from EA into Preview in this release, meaning there are no more know major issues. If you want to try it out, add the queryCompiler and driverAdapters preview feature flags to your generator, install the driver adapter for your database, and get going:
generator client {
provider = "prisma-client-js"
previewFeatures = ["queryCompiler", "driverAdapters"]
output = "../generated/prisma"
}
Now run prisma generate to re-generate Prisma Client. If you didn't use a driver adapter before, you'll need to install, e.g. the one for PostgreSQL:
npm install @prisma/adapter-pg
Once installed, you can instantiate PrismaClient as follows:
import { PrismaClient } from './generated/prisma'
import { PrismaPg } from '@prisma/adapter-pg'
const adapter = new PrismaPg({ connectionString: env.DATABASE_URL })
const prisma = new PrismaClient({ adapter })
No more hassle with query engines, binary targets and an even smoother experience in serverless and edge environments!

In the last release, we enabled you to spin up a Prisma Postgres instance locally via the new prisma dev command. Local Prisma Postgres uses PGlite under the hood and gives you an identical experience as you get with a remote Prisma Postgres instance.
This release brings major improvements to this feature:
prisma dev invocations.prisma init now uses local Prisma Postgres by default.Try it out and let us know what you think!
📚 Learn more in the docs.
Since its GA release, you could only interact with Prisma Postgres using Prisma ORM via a custom connection string.
This has changed now: When setting up a new Prisma Postgres instance, you receive a regular PostgreSQL direct TCP connection string (starting with postgres://...) that lets you connect to it using your favorite tool or database library, including Drizzle, Kysely, TypeORM, and others.
If you want to access Prisma Postgres from a serverless environment, you can also use our new serverless driver (Early Access).

Prisma Postgres' backup and restore mechanism has seen a major upgrade recently: You can now easily restore any previous backup via the UI in the Prisma Console. Find the new Backups tab when viewing your database and select any backup from the list to restore its state to a previous point in time.

If you're using Prisma ORM, chances are that you're using our VS Code extension too. In its latest release, we've added a major new capability to it: A UI for managing databases.
With this new UI, you can:
To use the new features, make sure to have the latest version of the Prisma VS Code extension installed and look out for the new Prisma logo in VS Code's Activity Bar.

prisma dev (Early Access)In this release, we're releasing a way to develop against Prisma Postgres locally — no Docker required!
To get started, run the new prisma dev command:
npx prisma dev # starts a local Prisma Postgres server
This command spins up a local Prisma Postgres instance and prints the connection URL that you'll need to set as the url of your datasource block to point to a local Prisma Postgres instance. It looks similar to this:
datasource db {
provider = "postgresql"
url = "prisma+postgres://localhost:51213/?api_key=ey..."
}
You can then run migrations and execute queries against this local Prisma Postgres instance as with any remote one. Note that you need to keep the prisma dev process running in order to interact with the local Prisma Postgres instance.

prisma-client generator (Preview)In this release, we're removing the deno Preview feature from the prisma-client-js generator. If you want to use Prisma ORM with Deno, you can now do so with the new prisma-client generator:
generator client {
provider = "prisma-client"
output = "../src/generated/prisma"
runtime = "deno"
}

Have you tried agent mode in VS Code already?
"The agent acts as an autonomous pair programmer that performs multi-step coding tasks at your command, such as analyzing your codebase, proposing file edits, and running terminal commands."
As of this release, your agent is capable of supporting you with your database workflows more than ever! If you're using VS Code and have the Prisma VS Code extension installed, your agent now is able to help you with your database workflows, such as:
All you need to do is make sure you're using the latest version of Prisma's VS Code extension and your agent is ready to go 🚀

We recently ran a poll where we asked you which region you'd like to see next for Prisma Postgres. The majority vote went to Asia Pacific (Singapore), so as of today, you're able to spin up new Prisma Postgres instances in the ap-southeast-1 region.
We're not stopping here — keep an eye out on X for another poll asking for your favorite regions that we should add!
