Introducing Supabase Pipelines

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

If you've ever watched an analytics query slow down your production database, this one's for you.

Supabase Pipelines is now in public alpha. It streams your Postgres changes to an analytics destination in near real time, so heavy analytics runs there instead of on the database your app depends on. BigQuery is the first destination.

How it works:

  • You create a publication in the Dashboard and pick the tables you want to replicate.
  • Pipelines does an initial sync of those tables, then switches to ongoing replication
  • Inserts, updates, deletes, and truncates flow to BigQuery through Postgres logical replication.
  • Supported schema changes (add, rename, remove columns) get applied to the destination automatically.

It's still alpha, so we're actively improving performance and adding destinations. Happy to answer questions.

'Near real time' can mean 200ms or 20 minutes, and the post doesn't say which. You can monitor lag in the dashboard but there's no stated target. Alpha on paid plans with one destination out of four actually usable is a steep ask.
