Layerbase

Layerbase Cloud provides managed databases across 19 engines, including relational, document, key-value, analytics, search, vector, time-series, and graph databases. It is for developers and teams who want to run databases for production, previews, and development from one platform, with isolated branches and connection strings for their applications. Eight engines have a free plan with no credit card required, and paid plans offer flat monthly pricing without usage meters. Databases can scale to zero when idle or run always-on on paid plans. Layerbase also includes web IDEs, migration tools, HTTP query access for supported engines, and local database workflows through its CLI and Desktop app.

Layerbase Cloud hosts managed databases across 19 engines, including relational, document, key-value, vector, search, and time-series options. It provides a shared platform for development, previews, and production, so teams can use different database types without managing separate providers for each. Databases have flat monthly pricing without usage meters. Free databases can sleep while idle and wake on connection, while paid plans offer always-on capacity. Users choose a database engine and create a cloud database with a connection string. The CLI can create databases and writable branches for previews, migration rehearsals, or experiments. Vercel and GitHub integrations keep preview branches and connection strings in sync. Users can query through browser-based IDEs, HTTPS APIs, or compatible database clients. For migration, they provide a connection string or API key; Layerbase provisions a destination and copies source data in one read-only pass. Layerbase is for people building applications who need databases for production, development, staging, or side projects. The page describes support for a wide range of engines and workflows, including local development, preview branches, and migration. Its stated distinctions include flat monthly plans without usage meters, free database options, and a CLI and Desktop app for running the same engines locally. High availability and multi-region replication are not yet shipped.
