would also love to see a more general version of hyperdrive (or similar tech) for accessing private resources (IE so we can communicate with services back on our AWS VPC from a Worker via a secure tunnel)

I think that's fundamentally just Workers + Magic WAN / Tunnels. You can connect to tunneled resources via a Tunnel from a Worker today, but we want to make it easier to set that up.

ah, I was unaware this was possible currently. Is it just the standard "things in your CF account can access the $uuid.cfargotunnel.com$uuid.cfargotunnel.com bit?

Yep. You can put Access in front and use a Service Token to auth as well.

Gotcha - I think I interpreted Hyperdrive's role as private connectivity + connection pooling, but makes sense the private connectivity is CF Tunnel. super excited again for the CF Tunnel integration!

Does this extend to TCP from Workers? I.e. via the Socket API or similar?

Matt Silverlock•9/28/23, 3:26 PM

To be clear, Hyperdrive will build a lot of this in — but at some point you need to give us a way to get to that private resource, which has to be Tunnel or Magic WAN (IPSec, GRE, etc)

Not yet.

I have been waiting for this for a long time. Excellent Job

Does your connection string start with postgres://postgres://?

kian•9/28/23, 6:51 PM

(or postgresql://)postgresql://)

If you do new URL(yourConnectionString).protocolnew URL(yourConnectionString).protocol in Node, what do you get?

kian•9/28/23, 7:15 PM

The dashboard one is correct. https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-docs/pull/10980/files

kian•9/28/23, 7:46 PM

The note about 3.8.0 doesn't look right either, Hyperdrive was added in 3.10.0.

kian•9/28/23, 7:46 PM

Might be another one to cover in your PR? @alex.robinson

I mean always being warm would obviously be super nice but I think what matters more at least on the hobby project side is not paying for idle usage. For an actual business use though I do think even paying to keep connection always warm to reduce times is ideal

Sameer Ali•9/28/23, 9:53 PM

What if we can configure the idle timeout?

SSanju Absolutely, you're correct. Neon does have a fantastic timeout feature that work...

Matt Silverlock•9/29/23, 8:22 AM

In practice most upstream databases will drop the idle connection - “always” may lead people to think we can avoid that.

really excited to play with hyperdrive

Does it have any usability with rust workers? (ping plz)

Matt Silverlock•9/29/23, 2:23 PM

This should work with a Hyperdrive connection string: https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-rs/tree/main/examples/tokio-postgres

we haven't fully tested, but LMK it does / does not.

kian•9/29/23, 2:35 PM

You'd likely have to use https://docs.rs/worker/latest/worker/struct.Env.html#method.get_binding to access the Hyperdrive binding (for the connection string) as well - but it should be easy enough

Sameer Ali•9/29/23, 8:51 PM

If i have smart placement enabled, does it work with hyperdrive?

would also love to see a more general version of hyperdrive (or similar tech) for accessing private
