anyone seeing a higher than usual amount of D1 errors (timeout, connection lost, etc)

yea had an automated job fail because it could not create a table this morning due to D1 timing out

do reads effectively "lock" the d1 database? eg: if i'm doing an expensive read-only query that takes 1-2s, does this prevent other clients from doing reads?

Dean•5/15/25, 12:25 AM

i thought reads were multi-threaded but writes are single threaded

i get DO's exist, but i built the platform around D1 with dynamic bindings coming eventually (which is fine). I'm hesitant to change everything from D1 -> DO and then D1 ends up with dynamic binding support and I've wasted my time. Eventually i'd like these databases replicated so I'm sort of in limbo.

Deda•5/15/25, 1:05 AM

is it possible to connect to the d1 trought the node.js app locally, or its only available for the workers?

Accessing D1 from outside workers:

D1 is based on SQLite, which does not natively support remote connections and isn't MySQL/PostgreSQL wire compatible, nor does D1 itself offer that functionality. As such, your options are:

1 -> The Cloudflare API Query Endpoint (https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/operations/cloudflare-d1-query-database), with the upside of needing less setup, all requests have to go back to Cloudflare's core, so request latency is far from optimal from some locations. You would also be subject to the API Rate limit of 1200 requests per 5 minutes.

2 -> Create a worker to proxy requests to your D1 Database. Either tightly bound to your application/schema or loose and just accepting any query. This would allow your worker to execute potentially closer to your D1 Database and avoid the api rate limit.

aza547•5/16/25, 11:36 AM

I'm seeing spikes of D1 failures periodically when querying my database recently. It doesn't feel like the normal level of background failures you might just retry to avoid. The errors all seem to be one of:

D1_ERROR: D1 DB storage operation exceeded timeout which caused object to be reset

D1_ERROR: D1 DB storage operation exceeded timeout which caused object to be reset

D1_ERROR: Network connection lost.

D1_ERROR: Network connection lost.

D1_ERROR: internal error; reference = 3n7qu7dkdd0atgp7vioes6a5

D1_ERROR: internal error; reference = 3n7qu7dkdd0atgp7vioes6a5

Is anyone able to advise on this? My database ID is

if that's of any use.

Hello, I’m Allie!•5/18/25, 4:15 PM

Sort of? You bind a DO namespace to your Worker once, but from that namespace, you pass an ID and get as many DOs as you want

Hello, I’m Allie!•5/18/25, 4:15 PM

One Namespace -> Many “Databases”

gruntlord6•5/19/25, 12:28 AM

yup, you can have a lot of individual objects in a single namespace

gruntlord6•5/19/25, 12:28 AM

for example, an object for every customer

gruntlord6•5/19/25, 12:29 AM

where as with D1 you need a binding for every db

Is there anyone working on a D1 client for workers with built-in retry, to try and circumvent these issues? https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-docs/issues/18485

xeon06•5/19/25, 3:56 PM

I suppose it isn't that simple to enforce idempotency

.ul0gic•5/19/25, 6:46 PM

anyone here familiar or have experience in getting local D1 instances to maintain persistence during local development by chance?

Fixing D1 Local Persistence with Wrangler Pages Dev

Issue

Local D1 persistence with

wrangler pages dev

wrangler pages dev

may not work as expected, even when

preview_database_id

preview_database_id

is set in

wrangler.toml

wrangler.toml

and

--persist-to

--persist-to

is used in the

dev

dev

script. Runtime operations (e.g., API calls creating new data) might connect to a new, blank D1 instance instead of the schema-initialized, persisted one. This leads to "no such table" errors and data loss between development server restarts.

D1 dynamic bindings are not coming in the short-term, and still undecided for long-term. If you want to programmatically create thousands of databases, SQLite Durable Objects are already available and they are the exact same SQLite components under the hood.

Ashish Rawat•5/20/25, 9:42 AM

Durable object is too much boilerplate.

planet•5/20/25, 2:18 PM

meh it only took less than a week to learn how to use SQLite in DO and refactor code

planet•5/20/25, 2:18 PM

you get input gates & (in my testing) much better latencies & less reads/writes because you dont need to index a user id

Ashish Rawat•5/20/25, 2:51 PM

problem is you can't query across multiple database for getting list of users, do joins and so on. So you've to use D1 for that with different concept. Cloudflare database (D1, DO) is broken. D1 has different limitation while DO has different. So basically to make everything work, you need to use both D1, DO and Queues. So instead of this, I better off go with managed postgres.

I wonder why you say this. Actually, D1 has exactly the same limitations as a single Durable Object, and even more since your worker code is remotely from the actual storage and you don't have things like transactions across queries interleaved with JS code, whereas in the DO case your code runs next to the storage and is fast. Resource limits wise, a D1 database IS a single Durable Object, so zero differences.

I assume your different viewpoint is if you design your DO architecture using per-resource/per-tenant DO vs a single D1 database, but then you are not comparing the same thing since managing multiple D1 databases in the same way would be much more complicated.

planet•5/20/25, 8:35 PM

Much less of a problem and more of a design consideration.

Personally I use D1 as a lightweight directory DBs that handles background cleanups/etc (via CRON) and login lookups. emails/sso metadata matches get logged into their SQLite in DO DB.

You also have Alarms which is part of Durable Objects (so you don't necessarily need Queues/Workflows)
You can also set up basic rate limiting in memory using

this

in each new constructor instance

Now I do wish my R2 bucket had spawned in the same DC as my DO... praying for finer grained location hints one day

ac•5/21/25, 12:43 AM

This is definitely different from the messaging that I've heard from other Cloudflare folks recently, I was definitely hoping for dynamic bindings for D1 as well. It's a bit disappointing how unclear this all is.

SQLite in DO's is a nice idea, but it's fairly unusable right now when you can't actually view DO instances and cannot view what is in the databases....
