Netlify Database is a fully managed PostgreSQL database that integrates seamlessly with your Netlify projects. It provides automatic database branching for deploy previews, built-in migration support, and a best-in-class local development experience.
Today, I'm stoked to share Netlify Database with you, a fully managed Postgres database, built directly into the platform.
Years ago, Deploy Previews made it safe to experiment with code. But the database layer never got that treatment. If you are developer, I'm sure you remember vividly the pain of a shared staging database that is always a little broken. Well, we decided to fix that.
Here is what's special about Netlify Database:
Automatic Branching: Every agent run or Git PR automatically gets its own database branch, seeded from your latest production data.
Zero Production Risk: Schema changes and test records are totally contained. Even our AI agent literally cannot modify production—it only writes migrations for your isolated preview branch. Production stays untouched until you hit publish.
Zero Extra Setup: Whether you are pushing code with Drizzle, or a designer vibe coding/prompting an app into existence, you get the exact same workflow and safety net.
"I want an app to manage my list of mythical creatures."
The agent will spin up the schema, wire up the UI, and give you a working preview running on a real Postgres branch.
