Introducing Platform Environments

Platform Environments is a new feature of the Prisma Data Platform that lets users create different setups within one project. This helps smoothen out the app development process, from testing to going live.

Also, now you can access the Prisma Data Platform using the Prisma CLI, making it easier to manage your resources and workflow (currently in Early Access).

👉 Learn more in our blog post, and take it for a spin.

Prisma ORM Edge Functions Support in Preview

Prisma ORM now supports edge functions, allowing developers to access their databases using Prisma ORM from platforms such as Vercel Edge Functions, Vercel Edge Middleware, Cloudflare Workers, and Cloudflare Pages.

Edge functions improve app performance by reducing request latency and improving response times.

With the release of Prisma v5.11.0, developers can now use Prisma ORM with their favorite Node.js database drivers in edge functions, and the query engine's size has been reduced to fit the limited runtime environment.

If you want to understand what this exciting functionality brings as a whole, take a look at our blog post and go try it.

Performance improvements in nested `create` operations

With Prisma ORM, you can create multiple new records in nested queries, for example:

In previous versions, Prisma ORM would translate this into multiple SQL INSERT queries, each requiring its own roundtrip to the database. As of this release, these nested create queries are optimized and the INSERT queries are sent to the database in bulk in a single roundtrip.
