Notion API importer, with Databases to Bases conversion bounty

Currently Importer supports Notion imports via the HTML export #14. This new importer would use the Notion API and download files progressively. This would also add support for Databases to Bases conversion. See #415 Bounty See the Contribution guidelines for how to claim this bounty. Bounty: $5,000 USD Timeframe: 30 days ⚠️ Please only apply if you have taken time to explore the Importer codebase, as well as the Notion API. Provide detail about how you would approach solving it within the

Replacing a cache service with a database

Replacing a cache service with a database I’ve been thinking about this: will we ever replace caches entirely with databases? In this post I will share some ideas and how we are moving towards it. tl;dr we are still not there, yet. Why do we even use caches? Caches solve one important problem: providing pre-computed data at insanely low latencies, compared to databases. I am talking about typical use cases where we use a cache along with the db (cache aside pattern), where the application alw

Graph databases are exploding, thanks to the AI boom - here's why

Cobalt88 / iStock / Getty Images Plus Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways The graph database market, driven by AI, is growing at a rate of almost 25% annually. Graph databases support knowledge graphs, providing visual guidance for AI development. There are multiple dedicated graph database vendors on the market. Over the past decade, there has been endless churn in technologies shaping the databases behind the applications we run. The rise of NoSQL

Why We Migrated from Neon to PlanetScale

In May 2025, during the same week Neon announced their acquisition, our databases went down four times. For hours. Database spin-ups, their entire value proposition, were completely disabled. Our "serverless" databases couldn't even start. That was the final straw in our decision to migrate to PlanetScale. Who We Are and Why Databases Matter More At OpenSecret, we're building something unique: a confidential computing platform powered by AWS Nitro Enclaves. Our flagship application, Maple AI,

Subscribe Now The database industry has undergone a quiet revolution over the past decade. Traditional databases required administrators to provision fixed capacity, including both compute and storage resources. Even in the cloud, with database-as-a-service options, organizations were essentially paying for server capacity that sits idle most of the tim

A recap on May/June stability at Neon

Details of incidents and what we did to prevent more in the future Starting in May, we had a series of feature launches with agentic AI partners that gained far more momentum than we predicted. In two short timespans, the rate of new database creation increased more than 5x, and the rate of branch creation increased more than 50x. While we were humbled by the uptick, the significant burst in operational load caused a lot of strain in the Neon platform, manifesting as more incidents over the cou

Pgactive: Postgres active-active replication extension

Active-active Replication Extension for PostgreSQL (pgactive) pgactive is a PostgreSQL replication extension for creating an active-active database. Overview Database replication is a method that copies changes between databases instances, and is a key component for use cases like high availability, reducing latency between an application and its source data, moving data between systems such as production and test, infrastructure migration, and others.
