I am using hyperdrive and I just want to clarify something. I'm using hono and then using the variables to set my db. Do I need to use ctx.waitUntil(sql.end()) or is it not 100% neccessary?

app.all("*", async (c, next) => {
    const sql = postgres(c.env.database.connectionString, {
        max: 5,
        fetch_types: false
    });

    const db = drizzle(sql);

    c.set("database", db);

    await next()
})

app.all("*", async (c, next) => {
    const sql = postgres(c.env.database.connectionString, {
        max: 5,

We'll hold the connection open until it times out Idle or the Worker itself disconnects, so it's just a bit of increased resource. Not the end of the world, but at a high enough scale or with particularly long-lived Workers/connections it may pile up enough to start slowing down your requests.

Yashu Mittal•5/24/25, 5:37 PM

I want to confirm if I understand this correctly, before i make a mistake by exposing the db publicly.

I have a db running on third-party cloud provider, along with a

cloudflared

cloudflared

container in the same network.
Now, from this docs: https://developers.cloudflare.com/hyperdrive/configuration/connect-to-private-database/#12-connect-your-database-using-a-public-hostname

I need to create a public hostname

<random_name>.<my_domain>.com/

<random_name>.<my_domain>.com/

and point it to db

mysq://...

mysq://...

with TCP type

Question:

If I link my db to make it accessible publicity via endpoint wouldn't anyone access it?
Do I need to enter the db username and password in type TCP url as well?

When I create a hyperdrive configuration, I can see it does ask for the db name, username and password.
Does that mean, that I do not have to add username, password and db name in the tcp url?

AJR•5/26/25, 12:36 AM

We can do it for you on request, please feel free to DM.

Making this self-service is a known feature gap, and we do plan to address it. However we have not prioritized it onto our roadmap for the upcoming few months. We do not yet have a committed timeline for when we will deliver this feature.

kindaraffy•5/26/25, 12:55 PM

Does anybody else have issues with their drizzle transaction's being complete cache misses? I know hyperdrive struggles to cache transactions, but my transactions are completely independent queries (I have a root transaction carrying individual, child transactions. It's these child transactions I'm expecting to be cached). I'm using

postgres.js

postgres.js

and

{prepare: true}

{prepare: true}

. Are transactions known not to work with hyperdrive at all?

I wanted to create a reproducible repo, but I wanted to see if anybody else had this problem.

A

AJR•5/26/25, 1:51 PM

We do not cache any queries conducted within a transaction, by design.

That said, Hyperdrive should be perfectly capable of handling transactions, with all the state correctly handled throughout.

Are you having any issues with things besides caching?

A

AJR•5/26/25, 1:56 PM

As an aside, I genuinely wish the Postgres wire protocol had commit/rollback status encoded into its ReadyForQuery messages. It would make caching tx queries so much less risky.

Dylan•5/27/25, 2:05 AM

hello everyone,

i'm having this error that I haven't quite know how to solve yet. it's related to using neon with postgres.js and hyperdrive
i'm trying to set up a connection as follows:

import { Context } from 'hono';
import postgres from 'postgres';

const db = (c: Context) => {
  console.log('Connecting to database...');
  console.log(c.env.HYPERDRIVE.connectionString);

  const connectionString = c.env.HYPERDRIVE?.connectionString;

  return postgres(connectionString, {
    fetch_types: false
  });
};

export default db;

import { Context } from 'hono';
import postgres from 'postgres';

const db = (c: Context) => {
  console.log('Connecting to database...');
  console.log(c.env.HYPERDRIVE.connectionString);

  const connectionString = c.env.HYPERDRIVE?.connectionString;

  return postgres(connectionString, {

  });
};

export default db;

};

but this is the output that I'm getting in the console:

splon•5/28/25, 6:45 PM

Hi, probably a noob question, but I'm connecting to a distant Neon db, and the latencies I'm seeing suggest that my query always takes 2 round trips (350ms latency, while pinging the Neon server takes 150ms and VPNing to a location near the server drops the latency to 50ms). This is even if I just hit Neon a few seconds earlier. I connect using

postgres(connStr, {max: 5, fetch_types: false,})

postgres(connStr, {max: 5, fetch_types: false,})

(not that I need more than one connection but the docs suggested setting max to 5) and I have the cache disabled since the purpose of my query is to catch updates to a counter due to mutations by other clients. My app is not yet publicly released, so there is very little traffic.

postgres.js will often take multiple round trips for a query. For your use case I'd try switching to node-postgres, it should do each of your queries in a single round trip.

I

Isaac McFadyenOP•5/29/25, 4:35 AM

that's kinda interesting, any idea why postgres.js does and node-postgres doesn't? I feel like I've seen it mentioned before but don't remember what the reason given was

A

AJR•5/29/25, 1:34 PM

Sure, I can talk through that. It's very "in the weeds" and is definitely the sort of thing we prefer to avoid making our users have to deal with, but I find it interesting.

So all of this has to do with Bind messages (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol-message-formats.html) and how you handle the parameter values for each bound parameter. There are two formats available,

binary

binary

and

text

text

. Postgres.js uses the binary format, while node-postgres uses the text format.

Binary format avoids needing text parsing, is smaller on the wire, and can in some scenarios be more precise. However, you generally need to get the actual format codes for each type from the server. To do this, postgres.js structures all new prepared statements (and therefore most new queries), as a Parse-Describe-Flush sequence, which will get back the ParameterDescription containing the binary format codes for each parameter. It then uses that information to construct the Bind message, and sends a followup Bind-Execute-Sync sequence, to get the actual results.

Node-postgres just builds the whole thing in one shot, as a Parse-Bind-Execute-Sync sequence. This pulls back the results in a single round-trip, at the cost of making the origin DB do some extra work handling the Bind message, and with the risk of some loss of precision in types like

float

float

or

timestamp

timestamp

.

Which is most appropriate, as always, depends

AJR•5/30/25, 1:18 PM

That's not currently on our roadmap, but it's something we've kicked around internally a bit.

Ultimately we don't get a lot of requests for it relative to observability/stability/other features, so it's unlikely to happen very soon unless we hear a bunch of people wanting it.

CC @thomasgauvin , in case he has more/different thoughts to share here.

That does raise a good question, though.

How many folks around here are using DSQL in anger? How's your experience been, and is it something you'd be particularly interested in having more robust Hyperdrive support for?

A

AJR•5/30/25, 3:04 PM

I think that's more or less correct, the round trips are most punishing for short-lived connections that don't re-use the prepared statement much.

That attribute fetch is needed for each new prepared statement, so if you re-run the same query with different params multiple times you only pay the overhead once. If you run N different extended-protocol queries you'll pay the overhead on each one.
