Aurora DSQL launches new support for Tortoise, Flyway, and Prisma

Posted on: Feb 25, 2026

Today we are announcing the release of Aurora DSQL integrations for popular ORM and database migration tools: an adapter for Tortoise (Python ORM), a dialect for Flyway (schema management tool), and CLI tools for Prisma (Node.js ORM). These integrations help developers use their preferred frameworks with Aurora DSQL while automatically handling IAM authentication and Aurora DSQL-specific compatibility requirements.

The Aurora DSQL Adapter for Tortoise enables Python developers to build applications using Tortoise without writing custom authentication code. The adapter supports both asyncpg and psycopg drivers, integrates with the Aurora DSQL Connector for Python for automatic IAM token generation, and includes compatibility patches for rich migrations. The Flyway dialect adapts Flyway for Aurora DSQL's distributed architecture by automatically handling Aurora DSQL-specific behaviors such as IAM-based authentication. The Prisma CLI tools help Node.js developers validate their Prisma schemas for Aurora DSQL compatibility and generate Aurora DSQL-compatible migrations, streamlining the path from development to production.
