## Runtime

- **GPU & accelerators**: No — "No GPU offering. Neon is a Postgres database platform. Compute measured in CUs (~4 GB RAM + CPU). No GPU mention in pricing or docs." [source](https://neon.com/pricing) (confidence: high)
- **BYOC (Bring your own cloud)**: No — "Managed hosted deployment; OSS local build is separate from BYOC." [source](https://neon.com/docs/introduction/regions.md) (confidence: high)
- **Secrets management**: DB roles and API keys; Functions receive DATABASE_URL automatically and support user-defined secrets/environment variables. [source](https://neon.com/docs/compute/functions/environment-variables.md)
- **Storage options**: Postgres: Free 1 GB/project and 20 GB/account; paid $0.35/GB-month. Object Storage: Free 5 GB/project; paid $0.023/GB-month. [source](https://neon.com/pricing.md)
- **Supported workloads**: Primary: OLTP Postgres, vector search, app/agent databases and branch-per-agent workflows. Backend services additionally include JS/TS Functions, S3-style Object Storage and prepaid AI Gateway. [source](https://neon.com/docs/get-started/backend-overview.md)
- **Persistence**: durable-storage — WAL streamed to safekeepers (Paxos quorum), pages materialized to object storage; compute nodes are ephemeral/stateless — "Lakebase architecture: ephemeral compute + durable storage. WAL committed once a quorum of safekeepers acknowledges it; pages materialized asynchronously to object storage. Compute can restart at any time without data loss." [source](https://neon.com/docs/introduction/architecture-overview.md) (confidence: high)
- **Data jurisdiction**: AWS regions (US, EU, APAC, SA); Azure deprecated — "8 AWS regions: us-east-1, us-east-2, us-west-2, eu-central-1, eu-west-2, ap-southeast-1, ap-southeast-2, sa-east-1. Azure regions (eastus2, westus3, gwc) deprecated — no new projects allowed." [source](https://neon.com/docs/introduction/regions.md) (confidence: high)
- **Resource limits & quotas**: Free: 100 CU-hours/project, 1 GB Postgres/project and 20 GB/account, 5 GB egress/project, 10 branches/project, 100 projects. Launch $0.106/CU-hour; Scale $0.222/CU-hour; paid 500 GB egress/project. Functions/Object Storage/AI Gateway limited to four regions. [source](https://neon.com/pricing.md)
- **SDK languages**: typescript, python — "Official TypeScript SDK (client + management), Python SDK (management). @neondatabase/toolkit for agents (TS). Community Go + Node.js/Deno SDKs (unofficial)." [source](https://neon.com/docs/reference/sdk) (confidence: high)
- **Network & egress controls**: IP Allow rules (Scale plan); PrivateLink / Private Networking (Scale plan); NAT gateway IPs documented for allowlist configuration — "IP Allow rules on Scale plan only. Private Networking (PrivateLink equivalent) on Scale at $0.01/GB. Free/Launch have no egress controls beyond public internet. NAT gateway IP addresses published per region for outbound allowlists." [source](https://neon.com/pricing) (confidence: high)
- **Snapshots & forks**: na — "Database copy-on-write branches and restore points are not running compute-instance snapshots. See database-branching feature." [source](https://neon.com/docs/introduction/branching.md) (confidence: high)
- **Deployment methods**: api, cli, console — "Current Neon CLI: npx neon@latest; provisioning/configuration, not git-push deployment." [source](https://neon.com/docs/cli/quickstart.md) (confidence: high)
- **Isolation**: Virtual machine — "NeonVM (neondatabase/autoscaling) uses QEMU as the hypervisor: 'QEMU is used as our hypervisor'. Each Neon compute node is a VM orchestrated by NeonVM as a Kubernetes custom resource; supports VM live migration across physical nodes. QEMU is named — not Firecracker or gVisor. DB-layer note: this is the compute isolation substrate, not user-exposed — Neon users get a Postgres endpoint, not a VM shell." (source: neondatabase/autoscaling repo README + architecture docs) (confidence: high)

Facts come from the product's own public pages. Each claim carries its evidence: a quote and the page it came from. We count capabilities rather than grade products, and "Not assessed" means we have not checked, never that the product lacks it.
