How Dispatch speeds up development with Neon while keeping workloads on Aurora

Dispatch, a technology company that streamlines last-mile delivery for businesses, has adopted serverless writer endpoints from Neon to alleviate overprovisioning and accelerate development. The company uses Neon branches for their ephemeral environments, allowing them to create isolated testing environments without moving large amounts of data around. Dispatch synchronizes their development environments with a subset of workloads on a scheduled basis using AWS Database Migration Service (DMS) and creates isolated branches for each environment through Kubernetes integration. Neon's read replicas are also used for ETL and analytics, improving the efficiency of data pipelines.
