Fluxbase Pricing, Features & Alternatives

Runtime Platform · BaaS

Self-host a PostgreSQL backend with REST APIs, authentication, realtime, storage, and edge functions.

Fluxbase is a developer-focused, self-hosted backend-as-a-service designed as an alternative to Supabase. It aims to provide a feature-rich backend that is easy to deploy, manage, and extend on your own infrastructure. Fluxbase focuses on combining database access, authentication, server-side logic, and APIs into a single, manageable platform, while keeping full control in the hands of the developer. Database branching is a Fluxbase feature on self-hosted infrastructure; operators still own database availability and backup operations.
Best for

Teams that want a lightweight, self-hosted Supabase-style backend built around PostgreSQL without operating a large collection of separate services.

Watch out for

Fluxbase is a young project. Production operation, upgrades, backups, scaling, availability, security, and PostgreSQL maintenance remain the operator's responsibility.

FAQ

Is Fluxbase free?
Yes, when self-hosted under its free AGPLv3 Developer license. You still pay for the PostgreSQL, object storage, compute, networking, backups, and operations behind the deployment.
