An in-process reimplementation of PostgreSQL in Rust, backed by a SQLite-compatible storage engine, built as an experimental fork of Turso. It parses PostgreSQL SQL with PostgreSQL's own parser and compiles it to SQLite bytecode, offering an embeddable single-file database that speaks PostgreSQL.

Use cases

• run postgres-compatible queries in an embedded single-file database
• give ai agents ephemeral scratch databases without a server
• use postgresql syntax and type system without running a postgres server
• embed a lightweight database in a rust application
• replace sqlite with postgres-compatible semantics in-process

When to choose

• you want postgresql dialect in an embeddable, serverless database
• you need ephemeral per-task or per-user databases for agents
• you prefer rust and a single-file storage engine over a full postgres install

When to avoid

• you need full postgres features, extensions, or production parity
• you want active development - it has merged into Turso
• you need multi-client server deployments with process-per-connection
