Best database for a small SaaS app in 2026?

0

Building my first SaaS. Confused about database choice.

Will have users, subscriptions, maybe some analytics. Nothing huge yet.

PostgreSQL? MongoDB? Supabase? What would you recommend?

Start with Supabase. Its PostgreSQL under the hood + auth + storage + realtime built-in.

Easiest way to get a backend running fast. Free tier is generous too.

PostgreSQL all the way. Rock solid, great with Prisma or Drizzle.

Supabase is just PostgreSQL + ready-to-use APIs. If you need quick backend, go Supabase.

MongoDB is fine but SQL is more powerful for complex queries later.
