The proxy runs locally or alongside applications, exposing a local TCP port or Unix socket that applications can use as if they were connecting to a standard database. This abstraction simplifies development and deployment by allowing developers to use familiar database clients while the proxy handles authentication and encryption behind the scenes. ...
