Prisma Pulse

Prisma Pulse lets you build reactive, event-driven applications with your serverless backend, connecting seamlessly to your existing PostgreSQL database. With just a few lines of code, you can react to database changes in real-time.

This enables real-time tasks like sending welcome emails when a user signs up or simplifying complex batch jobs.

Pulse offers an alternative to traditional backend systems built with queues or scheduled batch jobs, eliminating the need for hosting, management, and maintenance.

Pulse provides a simple alternative using the idea of unidirectional data flow (via the Change Data Capture pattern). It also integrates seamlessly with Prisma ORM and lets you subscribe to any database change events directly via Prisma Client.
