D1 has the insights command in wrangler: https://developers.cloudflare.com/d1/observability/metrics-analytics/#query-insights, which can show the most executed queries, slowest, reading the most rows/writing the most rows, etc

I cache my D1 connection like this (on workers):

let cached_db = null;
export const useDb = () => {
  if (!cached_db) {
    const binding = process?.env?.DB || globalThis?.__env__?.DB || globalThis?.DB
    cached_db = drizzle(binding, { schema })
  }
  return cached_db
}

let cached_db = null;

    const binding = process?.env?.DB || globalThis?.__env__?.DB || globalThis?.DB
    cached_db = drizzle(binding, { schema })
  }
  return cached_db
}

Can this be the cause of:

[request error] [unhandled] [500] D1_ERROR: D1 DB storage operation exceeded timeout which caused object to be reset.

lambrospetrou•1/15/25, 10:08 AM

I don't know how Drizzle works internally, but D1 doesn't have the concept of a long-lived connection like a traditional database. Every query you do sends a request to the database using connections managed by the runtime.
Our recommendation is to always use the fresh

env.{DATABASE_BINDING}

env.{DATABASE_BINDING}

you get in each request, otherwise you will definitely hit issues at some point.

This is what their example is doing as well: https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/connect-cloudflare-d1#step-2---initialize-the-driver-and-make-a-query
Looking at https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/blob/main/drizzle-orm/src/d1/driver.ts#L39 it's not doing expensive stuff, so just create it per request.

The specific error you got above is not relevant to that anyway, that error says that your query took too long and was killed.

I am using the latest version of Wrangler. The migration is very simple:

ALTER TABLE `app_devices` DROP COLUMN `force_app_bundle_id`;
ALTER TABLE `app_devices` DROP COLUMN `force_app_channel_id`;

ALTER TABLE `app_devices` DROP COLUMN `force_app_bundle_id`;
ALTER TABLE `app_devices` DROP COLUMN `force_app_channel_id`;

How can I fix this? It is currently blocking our production deployments.

Alex Patterson•1/15/25, 11:52 AM

I totally see now I have have been going through the tutorial and it seemed like the only way to start locally was with

npx wrangler d1 create

npx wrangler d1 create

. Without a wrangler project with the DB in it that is probably true, but once I have one it is no problem.

I have restructured my local project to all point to a shared local persistence area

--persist-to ../../../cloudflare/.workers/cache/

--persist-to ../../../cloudflare/.workers/cache/

which will allow for access to the DB from multiple microservices.

I now have a D1 only project file with just the required toml file for the db, prior to doing this it was generating a DB per running worker which didn't have the correct data because they were both in their own database. Is there a best spot to update the docs for this setup? Maybe at least a knowlege add to the local development area?

lambrospetrou•1/15/25, 1:24 PM

Your migrations should be owned by 1 process/application/worker. Choose which one and put them there. A database can be used by many apps/workers but one of them is the owner of the database. Same as any other application using a database.

Moh•1/15/25, 1:29 PM

i was thinking of workers as smaller than a service, but I guess I should treat them as microservices

Moh•1/15/25, 1:29 PM

in which case I should probably not share the DB

Multiple workers querying a single D1 database is fine, and expected. Multiple worker projects doing migrations on it is not expected since you need to have a single source of truth. You could even put them outside your worker projects entirely and run them in your CI.

Isaac McFadyen•1/15/25, 8:54 PM

why we cant just have normal sql connections

D1 is built on top of SQLite. There is no "normal SQL connections" because unlike Postgres/MySQL/SQL Server, SQLite DBs are normally used locally and have no connection protocol or way to connect remotely.

Devils•1/15/25, 8:54 PM

I suppose thats true, but I've seen custom middleware for connecting remotely before.

Devils•1/15/25, 8:55 PM

I guess D1 is nice for testing/developing though.

Isaac McFadyen•1/15/25, 8:55 PM

If Cloudflare were to have some sort of SQLite connection it would be entirely proprietary and almost nothing would even work with it because it would be non-standard.

DDevils This is kind of what I was thinking as well. Not really sure why we cant just ha...

lambrospetrou•1/15/25, 9:32 PM

As others said, SQLite doesn't have "normal" connections. Even if you use standard SQLite in your own local application you need extra layer to expose that over the network. That's the D1 HTTP API (albeit slow at the moment for reasons), and the Workers API to access that database from your Worker regardless of where it runs.

At the moment D1 really has value if you use it with Workers, otherwise you tradeoff a lot of things, so it depends what you want to do with it. If you mainly want to use it from outside Workers, and you also care about latency, then it's not ideal right now.

lambrospetrou•1/15/25, 11:17 PM

Query time is the raw SQL execution time.
Response time in the D1 console UI is NOT the performance you will get when using D1 in your worker code. Our REST API now flows through our central datacenters for auth reasons, therefore it's slow. That response time is the total time to send the query and get the result back to your browser.
When you use D1 from your worker the latency will be pretty much as much as the latency for 1 round trip from your location to your database location + the query time you see above.

I really suggest checking your database insights for your queries. If you are on a FREE plan, we will soon enforce limits, and the above usage is definitely above those limits. So, to avoid any breakage in your application, tune them before that time comes.

Hi, I’m wondering if there’s any news regarding d1 becoming actually distributed?

My company has been early adopters since ~2 years ago during the beta, but unfortunately it not actually being distributed has been a persistent latency issue for us.

Combined with db round trips (even with smart placement) being consistently high latency, has led us to have to move to Postgres. We notice that “cold start” times and round trips are consistently better from across the globe, even with a single Postgres instance in us-east :/

lambrospetrou•1/16/25, 3:54 PM

D1 latencies dropped almost half over the past few weeks, when using the Workers API (not the REST API).
Read replication is coming in the next few weeks/months, when it's fully tested and ready.

If you are accessing D1 through a Worker now, you should be having competitive latencies with accessing a centralized database in a single region, unless your compute is also in the same region. There is no magic for speed of light.

Combined with db round trips (even with smart placement) being consistently high latency, has led us to have to move to Postgres. We notice that “cold start” times and round trips are consistently better from across the globe, even with a single Postgres instance in us-east :/

Can you provide any comparison metrics for this? If you use smart placement and have enough traffic, latencies now should be very similar between D1 and a postgres in a single location.
Are you using Hyperdrive with Postgres, or purely over the network?
