## Notes

PlanetScale runs Vitess/MySQL and PostgreSQL databases as a cloud service on AWS, GCP and Azure. The homepage describes the service as cloud hosting for Vitess, Neki and Postgres. PlanetScale, Inc. operates its website from San Francisco.

The docs describe importing data from an internet-accessible MySQL database. Single sign-on is available as a paid add-on on the Base plan, and the regions page lists EU locations in Frankfurt, Dublin, London and Belgium.

## Worth knowing

Nothing is installed by the user: the service runs on PlanetScale's infrastructure, or in the customer's own AWS or GCP account under PlanetScale management. Vitess, the open source project behind the Vitess databases, is separate from the service, and PlanetScale maintains it.
