## From the publisher

You can create PlanetScale Postgres and MySQL databases from Cloudflare and bill PlanetScale database usage through your Cloudflare account as a pay-as-you-go customer. Cloudflare contract customers will be able to add PlanetScale usage to their contract in July so reach out to your Cloudflare account team if interested. Create a PlanetScale database from the Cloudflare dashboard to check out globally distributed Workers optimized for regional data access. Go to Create a PlanetScale database ↗ PlanetScale databases created from Cloudflare work with Workers through Hyperdrive. Hyperdrive manages database connection pools and query caching, so you can use PlanetScale as a centralized relational database for Workers applications without changing your database drivers, object-relational mapping (ORM) libraries, or SQL tooling.
