Turso
Turso is a distributed SQLite database platform that brings scalable, production-ready data storage with native vector search for AI applications.
What is Turso
Turso is a database service that takes SQLite and makes it ready for large-scale production use. You can create as many databases as you need, and they work just like SQLite but with added cloud features. Each database can be replicated to different parts of the world, making your app faster for users everywhere.
It includes native vector search, which is important for AI applications that use language models. You can also create database branches for testing, similar to how you branch code in Git. The embedded replicas feature lets you run a local copy of your database inside your app, giving you super-fast data access even when offline. This makes Turso ideal for modern apps that need both speed and reliability.
How to Use Turso
Using Turso is straightforward, and you can start in minutes. Here are the steps:
Sign up for a free account at turso.tech and install the Turso command-line tool on your computer. The tool helps you manage your databases easily.
Create your first database using a simple command. You can create as many databases as you need, even on the free plan.
Get your database connection details including the URL and authentication token. You'll use these to connect your app to the database.
Choose a client library for your programming language such as JavaScript, Python, Go, or Rust. Turso supports all major languages with easy-to-use libraries.
Connect your application using the library and start running SQL queries just like you would with regular SQLite. The syntax is familiar and simple.
For advanced features, enable embedded replicas for offline support or use vector search for AI applications by adding vector columns to your tables.
