Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S10 Turso Update with Pekka Enberg

Hello listeners.

Today, I have an incredible follow episode from our friends at Turso. You may remember our episode with Glauber Costa in Season 8, where he told us the creation story of the platform. Today, I'm speaking with his co-founder, Pekka, to hear the update on Turso and what the team has been building over the past year.

Now with Turso, you can not only have embedded replicas on your device or browser, with multi-tenancy and syncing to Turbo's edge network - but now the tool powers vector search from on the device itself, leading to natively server less, low latency sql lite production loads. Turso continues to push the envelope with their product, and expanding use cases for developers.

If you would like to learn more about Turso, go to turso.tech. If you'd like to learn more specifically about vector search, go to turso.tech/vector.
