ONVIX vs
Turso.

Turso brings SQLite to the edge with libSQL — fast reads, global replication. But it's a database-only service with row-read billing. ONVIX gives you the same SQLite speed plus four more services — deployment, auth, storage, and email — with flat pricing and a free tier on everything.

The shift
01

Row-read billing scales against you

Turso charges per billion rows read. A busy app with lots of queries hits the limit fast. ONVIX has flat pricing — query as much as you want without watching a meter.

02

A database without a platform

Turso gives you an excellent edge database. But you still need auth, storage, email, and deployment from separate providers. That's four more vendor relationships to manage.

03

libSQL adds a compatibility layer

Turso uses libSQL, a fork of SQLite with extensions. It's mostly compatible, but there are edge cases. ONVIX runs standard managed SQLite — fully compatible with every SQLite tool and library.

At a glance

Two different
philosophies.

ONVIX

The complete backend platform

  • Five services — deploy, database, auth, storage, email
  • Flat pricing — no row-read billing
  • Natural language queries built-in
  • Standard managed SQLite — full compatibility
  • Git push deployment included
  • Free tier on everything — no credit card
Turso

Edge SQLite, database only

  • Database only — no auth, storage, email, or deploy
  • Row-read billing (per billion rows)
  • No natural language query interface
  • libSQL (SQLite fork with extensions)
  • No deployment service
  • Free tier limited by row reads and storage

Who should use what

The right tool for
your situation.

Choose ONVIX if you…

  • Need more than a database — auth, storage, email, deploy
  • Want flat pricing instead of row-read metering
  • Prefer natural language queries for your whole team
  • Want standard SQLite without a compatibility layer
  • Are building a complete app backend, not just picking a database
  • Want one vendor for your entire stack

Turso might be right if you…

  • Need embedded replicas in your application process
  • Want 29+ global edge locations for ultra-low latency reads
  • Need libSQL extensions beyond standard SQLite
  • Run read-heavy workloads that benefit from edge caching
  • Already have auth, storage, and deployment covered elsewhere
