Existing users see no immediate change: Supabase continues with Postgres and Turso continues developing its Rust-based SQLite platform, which can manage millions of on-demand databases on a single server. Turso founders Glauber Costa and Pekka Enberg join Supabase, with Costa leading the agentic infrastructure effort. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### Did Supabase acquire Turso? Yes, Supabase is acquiring Turso to build database infrastructure for agentic AI. Turso will continue operating and developing its Rust-based rewrite of SQLite, which lets a single server manage millions of on-demand databases, while Supabase continues building around Postgres. Turso founders Glauber Costa and Pekka Enberg are joining Supabase, with Costa leading the new agentic infrastructure effort. _Teams tracking database platform consolidation can follow Supabase and Turso updates on daily.dev._ ### What happens to existing Turso users after the Supabase acquisition? Nothing changes for existing users. Turso continues operating independently and developing its SQLite-based platform, with a stated path into the broader Supabase ecosystem as workloads grow over time. Supabase separately continues its own Postgres-focused product, and the two are combining efforts specifically to support on-demand database provisioning for AI agents. _daily.dev helps developers stay current on database vendor changes that affect production dependencies._ ### Why would SQLite be a better fit than Postgres for AI agent workloads? SQLite suits small, on-demand workloads because it can be created as cheaply and easily as a file, without provisioning a dedicated machine, while Postgres fits applications once they scale up. Turso's architecture lets one server manage millions of SQLite databases, loading and suspending them as needed, which matches how agents spin up transient databases at scale. _Developers weighing SQLite versus Postgres for new architectures can track this comparison on daily.dev._ ## Community discussion Top comments from developers on daily.dev. **@debajyatidey** · 4 upvotes > Another OSS tool acquired **@hardik15** · 4 upvotes > The speed of acquisition is another level now days.
