Project mention: FastAPI, Pydantic, Psycopg3: the holy trinity for Python web APIs | dev.to | 2024-10-24
asyncpg: this was the gold standard async database driver for Postgres, being one of the first to market and most performant. While all other drivers use the C library libpq to interface with Postgres, MagicStack opted to rewrite their own custom implementation and also deviate from Python DBAPI spec. If performance is your main criteria here, then asyncpg is probably the best option.
