Today we're announcing PlanetScale Boost, an optimization layer that makes your existing SQL queries up to 1,000× faster.

It sounds too good to be true, but it's real and it's here. And there's so much I want to write about it! Here is my first write-up:

🌐 We just released the PlanetScale serverless driver for JavaScript.

With this Fetch API-compatible driver, you can now use PlanetScale with platforms that require HTTP connections like @Cloudflare Workers, @vercel, and @Netlify Edge Functions.

@AaronBBrown777 I’m so desperately sorry to hear this Aaron. Aside from being paralysingly photogenic his appearances on camera during our calls were always such highlights. He seemed affectionate and full of character and he made a lasting impression that will remain with me. ❤️

My #FOSDEM presentation is tomorrow! It's a bit different from my usual; it's an opinionated manifesto on the progress of relational databases.
The recorded session is followed by live Q&A. No worries if you're unable to attend; the recording will be publicly available.

I finally got down to document and explain how online schema change tools for @MySQL work. From a general description of the flow and logic and steps involved, to comparing some of the existing implementations. https://t.co/m1fJ3TaJ3m
