Partnering to make full-stack fast: deploy PlanetScale databases directly from Workers

What this post added

This post announces a partnership with PlanetScale, enabling direct connections from Cloudflare Workers to PlanetScale's MySQL and PostgreSQL databases. It highlights the integration with Cloudflare's Hyperdrive service, which provides connection pooling, query caching, and optimized routing for low-latency database access from the edge. The integration simplifies credential management by allowing account linking and offers one-click password rotation. The post details how Hyperdrive's Placement system determines optimal connection pool locations and resolves connection setups within the client to minimize roundtrips.
