Alloydb to Prisma Datacloud
Hey, we plan to move our Postgres database from Alloydb to Prisma, but the only issue we have right now is the region. We need Australia, and Prisma only has Singapore, which I think is the closest.
My question is, if we use acceleration and just go ahead with Singapore, how much would that affect our performance?

You're in no rush, so we'll let a dev step in. Enjoy your coffee, or drop into
#ask-ai if you get antsy for a second opinion!Prisma Postgres would be hosted in Singapore, yes, but query cache would be distributed. I would recommend trying out the Singapore location and seeing what your performance is. If there are any particular queries you need cached, that would help.
okay, thank you!
And there's no way to use the database without prisma client? I have one old go server that doesn't use prisma client and migration to the new client would be a headache. Is there a way to connect to prisma datacloud using the old school way of username/password?
hey, any updates on this
This isn't possible at the moment. Prisma Postgres is only accessible via Prisma ORM
(it's on the roadmap but isn't currently possible)
