Gel Joins Vercel (geldata.com)

I guess database as a service is not as bullet proof of a business model as one thinks, same sort of acquisition happened with Neon.

Vergel

The darkest day in Python history.

Less than two months for any production users to migrate. Sounds like they've basically got no paying customers otherwise I'd expect to have seen a longer than 2 month period to migrate especially over the holiday season.

I was hoping they will undermine all ORMs (and their associated frameworks) and make advanced queries accessible to everybody.

"The investment they're making in the ecosystem is rooted in a $$$ genuine $$$ commitment to the community. We’re grateful to Vercel for giving us the resources and reach to keep doing what we love at a much larger scale."

There, fixed it for you.

I'm really sorry to hear this. Gel really was an interesting product, and I really liked the idea that queries returned structs linked to other structs via properties, instead of rows like in SQL.

I hope some other group picks up the product. It's open-source, so anyone could adopt it.

I liked their product. They seemed to run out of funding in the last year though, and the founders lost steam.
