Supabase experiencing platform issues: Existing DB's cant be restarted, created
Supabase reported a platform incident where existing databases cannot be restarted or created, indicating ongoing service disruptions for users.
Background
- Supabase is a popular open-source backend-as-a-service platform that offers PostgreSQL databases, authentication, storage, and edge functions.
- It's often described as a "Firebase alternative" for developers building web/mobile apps without managing servers.
- This status page update reports an ongoing platform incident where users cannot restart existing databases or create new ones, indicating a significant infrastructure issue affecting many customers.
- For non-technical readers: this means apps relying on Supabase for their database layer (a large and growing portion of indie and startup projects) could face downtime or be unable to deploy updates until the issue is resolved.
