Prisma
Prisma provides TypeScript infrastructure for teams building software with AI coding agents. Instead of assembling a database, an ORM, and a hosting platform from three separate vendors that were never designed to work together, Prisma combines all three into one platform: a type-safe ORM, fully managed Postgres, and TypeScript app hosting, sharing one declarative schema and one config file. The backend is the unsolved part of agentic development.
Azure SQL Server Stretch Database
Azure SQL Server Stretch Database was a feature introduced in SQL Server 2016 that allowed organizations to dynamically extend their on-premises databases to Azure, enabling seamless access to both hot and cold data without significant changes to existing applications. This capability provided virtually unlimited storage and compute capacity, facilitating efficient management of large datasets.
