Does Prisma have a business model or premium version I’m not aware of? I don’t see anything on their site around premium options. Not sure why Amplify Partners would invest in Prisma unless they were planning on dedicating substantial resources to a premium / enterprise version.

From what I understand, prisma is an open source query builder for node/ts. Like sqlalchemy-core in python, which has been around for a long time.

This is simply not true. Perhaps that’s been the case in the node.js world but it has certainly not been the case in other server-side languages.



We've alluded to this in the blog post as well:

> We are commited to building world-class open-source tools to solve common database problems of application developers. To be able to sustain our open-source work, we're planning to build commercial services that will enable development teams and organizations to collaborate better in projects that are using Prisma.

So, your hunch is correct that later down the road we'll invest into building commercial cloud services for teams and enterprises that are using Prisma's open source tool!


Oh, it’s mentioned in the very last paragraph!
