Supavisor - a scalable Postgres connection pooler written in Elixir
We’ve been working on an open source multi-tenant Postgres connection pooler here at Supabase for the last few months.
It’s been rolled out to all projects and are exposing the new connection strings to customers gradually.
@josevalim and Dashbit have been helping with PRs. They’ve been amazing as you would expect.
v0.9.0 is released
The big ones here to get us to prod were SSL support and auth query support like PgBouncer.
I’ll try and update here also as we push features if anyone is interested.
1M Postgres Connections
We successfully reached one million Postgres connections!!

Thanks everyone. Elixir is awesome!
