A compatible drop-in alternative to PostgreSQL.
Your application keeps its driver and its SQL. You point it at Mach Database for PostgreSQL by changing the connection address, and nothing else.
What changes
One setting: the host your application connects to. The line below is from the Python example in the Mach Database for PostgreSQL repository.
Before: DATABASE_URL=postgres://app:${DB_PASSWORD}@old-postgres:5432/app
After: DATABASE_URL=postgres://app:${DB_PASSWORD}@machsql-host:5432/app
What stays
- Your driver or ORM, at the version you use
- Your SQL
- Your application code
