Overview
Vercel provides managed data services and storage for application state, cache, and files.
Postgres
- Provision Postgres for relational data.

Redis
- Use Redis for caching and ephemeral state.
- Configure access for Functions and Edge workloads.
Vercel Blob
- Store and serve files with Vercel Blob.
- Use Blob for uploads, assets, and media storage.
Edge Config
- Use Edge Config for low-latency configuration and feature data.
- Read from Edge Runtime workloads.
Data Cache and Storage
- Use data cache features for response caching.
- Review storage options for app data.
