Fauna Brings its Globally Distributed Serverless Database to the Netlify Platform
Summary
Specifically, the FaunaDB Add-on for Netlify enables users to seamlessly plug in a globally distributed datastore into their JAMstack applications and use it instantly via FaunaDB’s native GraphQL API, without any additional provisioning. Serverless data eliminates all database operations, which has until now been a cumbersome, error-prone and manual effort for developers, and one that required significant upfront planning. Data is instantly available with no additional provisioning steps and without any cold starts, resulting in seamless development of serverless apps. “The integration of FaunaDB with Netlify is a significant milestone for us, as it realizes our vision for a database as an API consumed directly from a leading serverless platform,” said Evan Weaver, CEO of Fauna. Developers looking to build rich applications in the cloud look to FaunaDB as the de facto data platform for speed and ease.
