Have been using Prisma and Prisma Cloud for a production ready product. Very happy about the simplicity, testability and maintainability of the code. Haven't gotten to the scalability part yet, but it's very promising as well!
This is the easiest and best way to abstract the complexity of database schema and migrations when integrating a GraphQL server. I love it and am excited for the future!
I've been using Prisma Cloud for about a month now (I had early access) and have been happy so far. Of course, the beta had some bugs but that's to be expected. Aside from those bugs, it worked great. It's really fast to get up and running with a GraphQL server and database, letting you get back to developing the product. For someone who isn't great at DevOps (like me), this is a great product choice because of those reasons above. I think the team has done an excellent job and excited to see new features come as time goes by
Few things that would be pretty helpful (feature requests)
- Inbuilt support for authorization(roles/permission) for users at resource level (user/actions/resource - mapping).
- Server side subscriptions are great, Not an optimal solution to build chat applications based on client side subscriptions yet. Hopefully it will improve overtime.
Prisma team is very supportive and are quite active on Slack.
You have to build products with Prisma! In my last client project, I used Prisma to rewrite an API and storage layer of a legacy system and what can I say? It was a breathe of fresh air! Implementing such a layer is usual a very boring task and it is pretty hard to get it right. Not with Prisma! It was actually a fun task. Excellent tech, combined with a welcoming and very supportive team allowed me to decrease the overall development time.
My client is running on Kubernetes and I had to deploy my Prisma service on their cluster as well. Nevertheless, I also had the chance to test drive Prisma Cloud and I will definitely considering it for my next production app. Graphcool is developing high quality technology!
Congrats on the launch. You rock! 🚀
