What ElectricSQL is

Electric syncs shapes — filtered subsets of Postgres tables — out of a database you already run, over plain HTTP with a caching layer in front. It deliberately handles reads only: writes go through whatever API you already have. That narrowness is the point, and it makes Electric the lightest commitment on this page. It is a sync layer, not a backend, so auth, storage and functions remain yours.

  • 2025-03-17ElectricSQL reaches 1.0

    Electric declared its Postgres sync engine production-ready after a rewrite that dropped the embedded client database in favour of HTTP shape streams. The narrowing — read path only, writes stay in your API — is what makes it the cheapest thing on this page to remove later.
