Supabase offers InstantDB migration path
Supabase’s migration flow converts InstantDB namespaces, links, users, and files into Postgres tables, relationships, Supabase Auth accounts, and Storage files. The workflow also generates SQL migrations for developers’ codebases.
This is a useful off-ramp for InstantDB users, but the migration caveat is significant: Supabase says InstantDB’s closed sign-ups prevented full end-to-end testing.
- –Requires a fresh, blank Supabase project, reducing the risk of overwriting an existing database
- –Preserves the source app and backup while importing data into Postgres, Auth, and Storage
- –Generated SQL migrations make the resulting schema easier to version-control and review
- –InstantDB’s cloud sunset gives existing users a concrete reason to evaluate migration options
- –Developers still need to validate permissions, application behavior, and feature parity after import
