Getting started with the Supabase .NET SDK
The Supabase .NET SDK provides a single C# client for Auth, Database, Storage, Realtime, and Edge Functions; version 8.0.0 moves serialization to System.Text.Json and adds injectable HttpClient with retry. It also ships a dependency injection package for ASP.NET Core that registers the client as scoped via IHttpClientFactory to pool connections. Models derive from BaseModel with table and column attributes; queries use From () with Where filters, and updates require explicit calls without a change tracker, supporting both model-based and query-builder approaches. Authentication covers email/password, OAuth, magic links, phone, and SSO, with auto-refresh tokens attaching to subsequent requests for Row-Level Security. Setup for ASP.NET Core uses AddSupabase, while other apps construct the client manually and call InitializeAsync; the post also distinguishes publishable and anon keys for client apps from secret and service keys that bypass Row-Level Security.
Introducing the unified Supabase .NET SDK
The Supabase .NET SDK v8 is now available, consolidating all packages under a single repository with a unified version number. Previously, packages like Gotrue, Realtime, and the main package were scattered across multiple repositories with separate versions and lifecycles, making upgrades complex. From v8.0.0, all packages—Gotrue, PostgREST, Realtime, Storage, Functions, and the umbrella package—share the same version, and previous repositories are archived as read-only. The jump from v1.x.x to v8.0.0 was necessary because Realtime was already on v7.x.x, and this ensures lockstep versioning going forward. A new dependency injection extension package registers the Supabase client with the .NET service container and lets IHttpClientFactory manage its HttpClient, starting at v8.0.0 as well. The update switches serialization from Newtonsoft.Json to System.Text.Json, adds configurable retry with backoff, accepts publishable and secret API keys, and targets netstandard2.1, with a migration guide available for breaking changes.
Supabase Select 2026 Recap
Supabase announced a code-first approach at its Select 2026 event, enabling developers to store schema and configuration in code so coding agents can set up and modify projects end to end. Local Supabase now runs as native processes without Docker, allowing multiple instances per directory and compatibility with sandboxes like Claude Code. A new MCP server lets application users connect their own agents, authenticating through existing Auth flows and enforcing row-level security on every tool call. Operational tools include Health Check Advisors for error rates, Database Connections for session management, Explorer notebooks for unified SQL and log queries, and query_logs for agent monitoring. Scaling features encompass Multigres for multi-node Postgres high availability, OrioleDB to avoid table bloat and VACUUM, Supabase Pipelines for near real-time data streaming to analytics platforms, and dbarena for transparent benchmarks.
Scale without limits: Multigres, OrioleDB, and dbarena
At Supabase Select, Supabase announced Multigres for high availability and connection pooling, OrioleDB for high performance storage, and dbarena for transparent benchmarking. Multigres is an open source operating system for Postgres that adds scalable connection pooling and automated multi-node failover using a consensus protocol built on synchronous replication, preventing data loss during failover. OrioleDB replaces Postgres’s heap storage with an undo log-based engine that eliminates bloat, VACUUM overhead, and transaction ID wraparound by using 64-bit transaction IDs, delivering up to 1.8x higher throughput in TPC-C-derived benchmarks. dbarena.com is an open benchmarks site that publishes reproducible performance and cost comparisons across managed Postgres providers including Supabase, Amazon RDS, and Google Cloud SQL, with full methodology and raw data. These tools aim to remove scaling limitations at every layer of Postgres, with all improvements being open source and available to the community.
Operate with confidence
At Supabase Select, Supabase announced tools that let coding agents find production problems, test fixes, and report back, with controls for access and permission. A new MCP tool gives agents raw SQL access to project logs, advisor checks now include health signals for error rates across Data API, Auth, Storage, and Edge Functions, and the database connections view shows sessions, long queries, idle-in-transaction, blocked, and lock holders. Notebooks combine saved database or log queries with markdown notes, can be created in the dashboard via the Assistant, pulled locally with supabase notebooks pull, and pushed with supabase notebooks push, and are found in the new Explorer rolling out through October 12. Updated Skills provide a living document of common health, security, performance, and resource signals for agents to watch for and how to monitor them. Supabase Pipelines, available on paid plans, allow replicating data to BigQuery, ClickHouse, DuckLake, or Snowflake.
Build anything: Supabase from code, and an MCP server for your app
Supabase announced tools at Supabase Select that let coding agents manage backend configuration and deployment from code, eliminating the need for dashboard-only changes. Declarative Schemas 2.0 allows agents to edit SQL files as the source of truth, with pg-delta generating migrations, while config.toml holds settings like auth providers that can be pulled back from the dashboard. Local development now runs as native processes without Docker, supporting multiple instances per directory and working in environments like Claude Code’s sandbox, currently in alpha off by default. Supabase Compute provides long-running services in any language alongside the database, with configurable memory and CPU, public or private HTTP endpoints, and deployment via CLI or Management API. The new MCP server lets user agents interact with an app as the signed-in user, respecting existing RLS policies, built on @supabase/server and Supabase Middleware, with a headless app template available.
Supabase is acquiring Turso
Supabase is acquiring Turso to evolve database infrastructure for the massive scale of AI agent-created databases. Supabase already launches over one million databases per week and expects demand to outpace capacity as agents build more software. Turso rebuilt SQLite in Rust, creating a cloud platform where a single server manages millions of databases, loading them on demand and suspending them when idle, avoiding dedicated machines for small workloads. This architecture suits agent workloads needing cheap, on-demand databases, while Postgres remains the path for scaling to production; Turso will continue operating independently with a clear path into Supabase’s ecosystem, and for existing users nothing changes. Glauber Costa will lead the agentic infrastructure effort, and the combined mission is to store the world’s data as agents create more of it.
Supabase is now available in Gemini Enterprise
Supabase is now available as a prebuilt connector in Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise, allowing teams to query and take action on Supabase projects through natural-language prompts. After an organization-level connection, Gemini Enterprise calls the connector for live answers, does not store or index Supabase data, and can combine results with connected tools such as GitHub, Linear, Notion, Slack, and Salesforce. The integration supports questions about tables, database metrics, and table structure, while exposed tools are marked read-only or destructive. Business users connect through the connector menu, whereas Standard, Plus, and Frontline administrators use a client ID and secret in the admin console; the connector is available across all editions.
