|
|
|
|
Supabase is built on top of [Postgres](/docs/postgres/server/about), an extremely scalable Relational Database.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
### Table View
|
|
|
|
You don't have to be a database expert to start using Supabase. Our table view makes Postgres as easy to use as a spreadsheet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Relationships
|
|
|
|
Dig into the relationships within your data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<video width="99%" loop="" muted="" playsInline="" controls="true">
|
|
<source src="/videos/relational-drilldown-zoom.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
|
|
</video>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Clone tables
|
|
|
|
You can duplicate your tables, just like you would inside a spreadsheet.
|
|
|
|
<video width="99%" muted playsInline controls={true}>
|
|
<source src="/videos/duplicate-tables.mp4" type="video/mp4" muted playsInline />
|
|
</video>
|
|
|
|
### Enable and disable extensions
|
|
|
|
Extensions are one of the best things about Postgres. You can enable Postgres extensions with the click of a button.
|
|
|
|
<video width="99%" muted playsInline controls={true}>
|
|
<source src="/videos/toggle-extensions.mp4" type="video/mp4" muted playsInline />
|
|
</video>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### The SQL Editor
|
|
|
|
Supabase comes with a SQL Editor. You can also save your favorite queries to run later!
|
|
|
|
<video width="99%" muted playsInline controls={true}>
|
|
<source src="/videos/favourites.mp4" type="video/mp4" muted playsInline />
|
|
</video>
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Additional features
|
|
|
|
- Supabase extends Postgres with realtime functionality using our [Realtime Server](/docs/realtime/server/about).
|
|
- Every project is a full Postgres database, with `postgres` level access.
|
|
- Managed backups - Supabase handles all your database backups.
|
|
- Data imports - import directly from a CSV or excel spreadsheet.
|

|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Changing the timezone of your server.
|
|
|
|
Your database is initialized with the UTC timezone. We recommend keeping it this way, as it is helpful for time calculation.
|
|
If, however, you want to update the timezone, you can do so using any of the [database timezones](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones).
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
```sql
|
|
alter database postgres set timezone to 'Asia/Singapore';
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
