Supabase – General Availability Week
- Now, the connection between our API servers and the database was slow (a few hundred ms per query), so we moved to self-hosting Postgres which was pretty painful. We tried to use https://github.com/supabase/postgres, but the documentation was very lacking and we had to make a bunch of modifications to get it to work. After we got it working, it was pretty smooth though - pretty easy to implement backups, etc.
- Any comprehensive guide on self hosting ?

Vector support in PostgreSQL services to power AI-enabled applications
I think Supabase generally does good work, but I don't think they can be given credit for pgvector, if that's what you're indicating (I might have misread).
As I understand, Andrew Kane is the principal author of pgvector, and has worked on it for almost two years before Supabase added support for it.
See also https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector/issues/54 and https://github.com/supabase/postgres/pull/472.

Storing OpenAI embeddings in Postgres with pgvector
we merged the pgvector PR about 2 weeks ago (https://github.com/supabase/postgres/pull/472). If you're missing anything for your CLI don't hesitate to reach out and we'll see if we can integrate it into the product (my email is in my profile)
as an aside, Pinecone looks great

Given an ansible playbook, how do I "execute" it on a server?
One of the things they recommend is separating the PostgreSQL DB from the rest of the stack. And they also provide an ansible playbook to set up a postgres DB: https://github.com/supabase/postgres/blob/625899e687047a9da658f3f8cc6dd91ac9769694/ansible/playbook.yml

GraphQL is now available on Supabase
> entire solution from docker
We PR'd this into our docker-compose today [0]. We're always a bit slammed during Launch Week, so if you spot any problems let use know and we'll patch it up asap.
The extension is also deployed directly into our PG bundle [1] which is available in docker [2]
> The Gui for adding roles and tying them to postgres access is very slick with hasura. Is this done manually via SQL commands with supabase?
I haven't tried Hasura so I don't know if this is a direct comparison. pg_graphql works with Postgres Row Level Security - we provide a GUI for this in our Dashboard, but they are also just native PG Policies, so you can write them in raw SQL
