Neon Is Generally Available: Serverless Postgres

  Neon: Serverless Postgres. We separated storage and compute to offer autoscaling, branching, and bottomless storage.

  

I want to use this as a chance to bring attention to a GitHub issue that I think would help reduce friction for Neon:

https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4989

If the Neon driver were to allow us to easily pass in a localhost connection, the development and test experience would be easier. Perhaps Neon could swap to something like this internally: https://github.com/porsager/postgres.

Having run a local dev environment connected to Neon and tests connected to Neon got in our way of adoption. We'd prefer to develop and run tests against a regular Postgres localhost database.

To the PMs of Neon, put yourself in the shoes of a new developer thinking of giving Neon a try. What changes will I have to make to my code and my development workflow?

pg doesn't do too well with serverless, dead connections are left in the pool (or something)

  Neon serverless Postgres database helm chart

Neon seems really great to me, but I wish I could easily run it locally via Kubernetes. I know there are some projects out there[0] but they are all supported by 3rd parties and things like branching and other features don't appear to be supported.

I'd love to be able to just use a helm chart to have Neon in my homelab.
