What is pgpulse?

pgpulse is a practical observability and diagnostic tool for Supabase and Postgres teams, designed to help you maintain a healthy, high-performance database without needing to be a full-time DBA.

Who it's for​

pgpulse is built for developers and engineering teams using Supabase or standalone PostgreSQL who want clear, actionable insights into their database performance without the noise of traditional monitoring tools.

What problem does it solve?​

Most monitoring tools give you graphs but don't tell you what they mean. pgpulse focuses on meaning over metrics, correlating system signals with query patterns to give you a clear picture of why your database is slow or why it crashed.

Key Outcomes​

  • Prevent Outages: Catch connection saturation and IO spikes before they take your app offline.
  • Surface Slow Queries: Automatically identify queries that are dragging down your p95 latency.
  • Actionable Advisory: Get specific recommendations on indexes, configuration, and query patterns.
  • Supabase Optimized: Deep understanding of Supabase-specific patterns like connection pooling (PgBouncer/Supavisor) and burstable CPU.
