Netlify DB

Netlify DB provisions a managed Neon Postgres database automatically. No Neon account required.

When to Use DB vs Blobs

Use Netlify DB when:

• Storing structured, relational data
• Data will grow over time
• Need queries, filtering, joins, or aggregations

Use Netlify Blobs instead when:

• Storing files (images, documents, exports)
• A handful of records with no growth expectation
• Simple key-value storage with no relational needs
• Want zero dependencies beyond @netlify/blobs

See the netlify-blobs skill for Blobs usage.
