PlanetScale's new database import feature makes it easy and painless to migrate your data from an existing internet accessible MySQL database into a PlanetScale database. With just a connection to your database, you can try out PlanetScale in front of your existing database and then import your data into PlanetScale. When you’re ready, switch traffic to your PlanetScale database without any downtime. Note: this feature is in limited beta.

Check out our latest blog post to learn more about how to import your data.

PlanetScale is now GA and ready for your production workloads. We launched our beta in May, and since then we’ve been hard at work to ensure that we offer the security, performance, and reliability you expect from a database platform. Read more about our journey to GA here.

We’ve launched PlanetScale Managed Cloud, our enterprise offering for customers who need to host their data. We offer a unique managed experience — we deploy PlanetScale in our customer’s AWS account and manage it directly using a sub-account. This provides the full managed experience to our customers, while meeting their strict compliance requirements. Read more about PlanetScale Managed Cloud in this blog post.

We’ve updated our Scaler plan to make it a better option for our users. As a part of these changes, we’ll be including 500 million rows read, 50 million rows written, and 25 GB of storage in the plan and charging a monthly fee of $29. For usage and storage above the included amounts, we’ll be charging $1.50 per 10 million row reads, $1.50 per 1 million row writes, and $1.25 per GB of storage.

For larger organizations, we now offer a customizable, resource-based Enterprise plan that includes features like Single sign-on, unlimited database branches, premium support, and more.

To ensure we can provide the best quality service for our free Developer plan databases, we will be limiting the number of Developer plan databases to one per organization.
