prisma-sql features

  • Runtime SQL generation. Converts supported Prisma read queries into SQL at runtime.
  • Prebaked hot queries. Allows @optimize annotations to generate SQL at build time for hot query shapes.
  • PostgreSQL batch queries. Combines multiple read queries into a single round-trip using Prisma $batch.
  • Include & relation reduction. Optimizes includes with flat joins, where-in loading, or correlated subqueries.
  • Large to-many include protection. Detects large child tables and switches to batched where-in loading to avoid expensive scans.
  • Aggregate type handling. Maps aggregate results back to Prisma-style types like Decimal, BigInt, and DateTime.

WunderGraph features

  • Connect any service. Expose gRPC, Kafka, NATS or Redis services through a unified GraphQL router without extra infrastructure.
  • Real-time streams. Router handles subscriptions, aggregating events from Kafka, NATS or Redis and pushes updates to clients.
  • MCP Gateway. One gateway turns approved operations into agent-ready tools with built-in authentication, eliminating separate MCP servers.
  • Graph governance hub. Shared canvas for schema design, review, ownership, proposals and safe deployments with audit logs and RBAC.
  • Cache warming. Pre-warm query planning cache to eliminate long planning delays for high-load scenarios.
