What is Cloudflare Hyperdrive?

Cloudflare Hyperdrive is a service that makes your existing regional databases feel global by pooling connections and caching queries near your users to reduce latency.

Why is nodejs_compat required for Hyperdrive?

Most database drivers like 'pg' or 'mysql2' rely on Node.js APIs that are not native to the Workers runtime; the compatibility flag enables these required APIs.

Does this skill help with Prisma and Drizzle?

Yes, it provides specific implementation patterns to prevent common issues like connection hangs in Prisma and I/O isolation failures in Drizzle/Nitro.

How do I fix hostname resolution failures in local development?

This skill recommends using an environment variable (CLOUDFLARE_HYPERDRIVE_LOCAL_CONNECTION_STRING) to bypass resolution issues on Windows and macOS during local dev.

Does Hyperdrive support MySQL?

Yes, Hyperdrive supports MySQL (v8.0.40 or earlier) using the mysql2 driver, provided you use supported authentication plugins like caching_sha2_password.
