About Neon
The fully managed multi-cloud Postgres with a generous free tier. We separated storage and computing to offer autoscaling, branching, and bottomless storage. We separated storage and computing to make on-demand scalability possible. Compute activates on an incoming connection and scales to zero when not in use. Neon storage uses the "copy-on-write" technique to deliver data branching, online checkpointing, and point-in-time restore. This eliminates expensive full-data backup and restore operations required with traditional database-as-a-service systems. Neon allows you to instantly branch your Postgres database to support modern development workflows. You can create branches for test environments and for every deployment in your CI/CD pipeline. Our serverless architecture reduces computing and storage expenses. Specifically, Neon's autoscaling capabilities prevent over-provisioning and paying for under-utilized instances.
