Deploy Postgres and MySQL databases with PlanetScale + Workers

Cloudflare announced our PlanetScale partnership last September to give Cloudflare Workers direct access to Postgres and MySQL databases for fast, full-stack applications.

Soon, we’re bringing our technologies even closer: you’ll be able to create PlanetScale Postgres and MySQL databases directly from the Cloudflare dashboard and API, and have them billed to your Cloudflare account. 

You choose the data storage that fits your Worker application needs and keep a single system for billing as a Cloudflare self-serve or enterprise customer. Cloudflare credits like those given in our startup program or Cloudflare committed spend can be used towards PlanetScale databases.

Postgres & MySQL for Workers

SQL relational databases like Postgres and MySQL are a foundation of modern applications. In particular, Postgres has risen in developer popularity with its rich tooling ecosystem (ORMs, GUIs, etc) and extensions like pgvector for building vector search in AI-driven applications. Postgres is the default choice for most developers who need a powerful, flexible, and scalable database to power their applications.

You can already connect your PlanetScale account and create Postgres databases directly from the Cloudflare dashboard for your Workers. Starting next month, a new Cloudflare subscription will bill for new PlanetScale databases direct to your Cloudflare Continue reading

Developer Week 2025 wrap-up

As we conclude Developer Week 2025, we’re proud to reflect upon the capabilities we’ve added to our developer platform. It’s so rewarding to deliver products, features and tools that help developers build smarter and ship faster, and even more so hearing your responses throughout the week!

Our VP of Product, Rita Kozlov, kicked off Developer Week 2025 discussing the ever-evolving landscape of development, particularly in the age of AI. AI is no longer just a buzzword or a trope for a science-fiction future — in the realm of modern development, it’s a core tenet (and utility) of how we build, innovate, and solve problems. It’s influencing how and how frequently we ship code, as well as enabling anyone to write it.

It’s exciting to not only witness this technical revolution, but also to be building a platform that enables developers to be part of it. We want to hear your feedback and see what you build with the new capabilities — reach out to us on Discord or X.

Here’s a recap of our Developer Week 2025 announcements:
