# Using the PlanetScale serverless driver with Prisma
> This document outlines how you can use the [PlanetScale serverless driver](/docs/vitess/tutorials/planetscale-serverless-driver) along with Prisma in your application.
export const PlatformAvailability = ({current, vitess, postgres, neki}) => {
const docsHref = path => {
if (!path) return path;
const normalized = path.startsWith('/') ? path : `/${path}`;
return normalized;
};
const labels = {
vitess: 'Vitess',
postgres: 'Postgres',
neki: 'Neki'
};
const combinedLabels = {
both: 'Vitess and Postgres',
all: 'Vitess, Neki, and Postgres',
'postgres-neki': 'Postgres and Neki'
};
if (combinedLabels[current]) {
return
{combinedLabels[current]}
;
}
const hasVitess = current === 'vitess' || Boolean(vitess);
const hasPostgres = current === 'postgres' || Boolean(postgres);
const hasNeki = current === 'neki' || Boolean(neki);
const only = [hasVitess, hasPostgres, hasNeki].filter(Boolean).length === 1;
const engines = [];
if (current === 'vitess' || current === 'postgres' || current === 'neki') engines.push(current);
if (hasVitess && current !== 'vitess') engines.push('vitess');
if (hasNeki && current !== 'neki') engines.push('neki');
if (hasPostgres && current !== 'postgres') engines.push('postgres');
return
;
};
## Set up
To get started:
Install the Prisma driver adapter for PlanetScale (`@prisma/adapter-planetscale`) and PlanetScale serverless driver (`@planetscale/database`) packages:
```shell theme={null}
npm install @prisma/adapter-planetscale @planetscale/database
```
Update your `prisma/schema.prisma` file:
```javascript theme={null}
// schema.prisma
generator client {
provider = "prisma-client"
output = "../generated/prisma"
}
datasource db {
provider = "mysql"
url = env("DATABASE_URL")
relationMode = "prisma"
}
```
Ensure you update the host value in your connection string to `aws.connect.psdb.cloud`. You can learn more about this [here](/docs/vitess/tutorials/planetscale-serverless-driver#add-and-use-the-planetscale-serverless-driver-for-javascript-to-your-project).
Generate Prisma Client:
```shell theme={null}
npx prisma generate
```
Update your Prisma Client instance to use the PlanetScale serverless driver:
```javascript expandable theme={null}
import "dotenv/config"
import { PrismaPlanetScale } from '@prisma/adapter-planetscale'
import { PrismaClient } from './generated/prisma/client.js'
const adapter = new PrismaPlanetScale({ url: process.env.DATABASE_URL })
const prisma = new PrismaClient({ adapter })
async function main() {
const posts = await prisma.post.findMany()
console.log(posts)
}
```
You can then use Prisma Client as you usually would with auto-completion and full type-safety.
