Postgres at AI Speed in Under 2 Minutes: pgEdge Starfleet Quickstart

Spin up a Postgres database with a built-in MCP server, RAG pipeline, and instant copy-on-write branching in under three minutes, on pgEdge Starfleet.

This walkthrough covers the full pgEdge Starfleet quickstart: sign up, create your first database, and connect an agentic coding tool such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Replit through the built-in MCP server, with pgEdge SafeSession keeping read-only connections truly read-only. From there, stand up a RAG server with hybrid search over your own Postgres data, then create a copy-on-write database branch, implemented without replacing the Postgres storage layer, to test schema changes or run migrations without touching production data.

pgEdge Starfleet is the enterprise Postgres cloud platform for building agentic AI and enterprise applications, built on 100% standard, open source Postgres. Start on pgEdge-hosted cloud infrastructure, then deploy to your own cloud or on-premises, including air-gapped environments, without replatforming.
