Hey guys!
Unfortunately, I missed the recent live Q&A, but I did have a question I wanted to ask.
In regards to the recent backend upgrade, is there any difference between using the WeWeb native tables/Auth vs Supabase’s? Especially if building an enterprise-based app with 10k+ users?
Just want to make the commitment to the right database/backend.
Thanks,
Bryn

Hi @Bryn 👋
WeWeb’s native backend can easily handle 10k+ users, no worries 🙂
We’re working on a resource to make the comparison easier but, in the meantime, the two main use cases where WeWeb tables would not be suitable:
- if you need realtime
- if you need HIPAA compliance (WeWeb frontend + Supabase can be HIPAA compliant but WeWeb Tables not for now)
Other than that, the choice comes down mostly to your technical skills and confidence working with SQL / RLS.
Does that help? Don’t hesitate to ask follow up questions if needed!
