\n

Today we're launching Supabase Compute in private alpha. Now you can run agents, background jobs, and APIs right next to your data, in the same project. During the private alpha, Compute is available in the us-west-2 region, with more regions coming soon. Join the waitlist to try it for free.

\n

Developers told us some work doesn't fit in an Edge Function. Some work needs more memory or CPU. Some runs longer than 400 seconds, like an AI agent. Some is written in another language.

\n

That work usually means a second platform, with its own deploys, its own logs, and debugging across two providers. Supabase Compute brings that work into your project. You pick the size, the work runs for minutes or hours, and you deploy Node, Deno, or any Dockerfile.

\n

What you can run

\n

Each service gets a full Linux environment, so you can run:

\n\n

Dreambase moved their data agent onto Compute to test it. Its queries to Postgres took a median of 2.9 ms, versus 65 ms from another region.

\n

Deploy with the Supabase CLI

\n

Compute uses the Supabase CLI you already have, v2.120.0 or later. Once you have access:

\n
  1. Add compute = true under [experimental] in supabase/config.toml.
  2. Create a service with supabase compute new. Pick a runtime (Node, Deno, or a Dockerfile), a size (2 GB with 1 vCPU, or 4 GB with 2 vCPUs), and whether the service is public, with a URL, or private, with no URL.
  3. Replace the starter code in the service's folder, under supabase/compute/, with your own.
  4. Deploy it with supabase compute push.
\n

A service's settings are a few lines in config.toml, so your coding agent can write them and deploy the service for you. Point your agent at the Compute guide. The Management API also has alpha endpoints to deploy, list, and delete services.

\n

Your services get your project's secrets. Their logs show up on the Compute page in your dashboard.

\n
