Prisma ORM now supports Turso in Early Access, enabling developers to use libSQL (an open-source SQLite fork) with Prisma's driver adapter system. The integration requires enabling the `driverAdapters` preview feature flag and installing the libSQL client. Beyond basic remote SQLite, the post highlights Turso's embedded replicas feature, which places a local copy of the database inside the application, dramatically reducing query latency — from 154ms down to 7.8ms in benchmark examples. Use cases include improving API read performance and replacing caching services.
