Available for any PostgreSQL, including self-managed and managed services* like AWS RDS, GCP Cloud SQL, Supabase, and Timescale.
It can be installed and used anywhere: across all cloud environments and on-premises.
*For managed PostgreSQL cloud services like AWS RDS or Heroku, direct physical connection and PGDATA access aren't possible. In these cases, DBLab should run on a separate VM within the same region. It will routinely auto-refresh its data, effectively acting as a database-as-a-service solution. This setup then offers thin database branching ideal for development and testing.
For example, cloning a 1 TiB PostgreSQL database takes just about 10 seconds. On a single machine, you can have dozens of independent clones running simultaneously, supporting extensive development and testing activities without any added hardware costs.

to access)Thin cloning is fast because it is based on Copy-on-Write (CoW). DBLab employs two technologies for enabling thin cloning: ZFS (default) and LVM.
Using ZFS, DBLab routinely takes new snapshots of the data directory, managing a collection of them and removing old or unused ones. When requesting a fresh clone, users have the option to select their preferred snapshot.
