[Supabase](https://yomu.fyi/company/supabase) · Ant Wilson · Apr 15, 2022

**Type:** Announcement

## Summary

Supabase announced several major platform updates for March 2022, introducing global edge deployments for JavaScript and TypeScript functions developed and tested locally. Database querying expanded to support GraphQL through an open-source, portable Postgres extension. Supabase Realtime received support for multiplayer and presence to enable collaborative applications, alongside enterprise and scale capabilities including Point-In-Time-Recovery, SLAs, premium support, a Prometheus endpoint, and an observability dashboard. To enhance security, an integration with GitHub secret scanning automatically notifies developers and rolls exposed service\_role keys found in public repositories. Additional updates include the PostgREST 10 pre-release, Next-JS auth helpers, new OAuth providers, and full remote hiring across engineering, marketing, and human resources.

## Approach / What changed

Supabase added edge function deployments for JavaScript and TypeScript, implemented GraphQL querying as a Postgres extension, and added multiplayer and presence to Supabase Realtime. It also rolled out an observability dashboard, a Prometheus endpoint, Point-In-Time-Recovery, and an automated GitHub secret scanning integration that rotates exposed service\_role keys.

## Takeaways

- JavaScript and TypeScript edge functions can be developed and tested locally before deploying globally to Supabase.
- GraphQL querying is implemented directly inside Supabase as an open-source, portable Postgres extension.
- GitHub secret scanning integration notifies users and automatically rolls service\_role keys if they are pushed to GitHub repositories.
