# Isolated Postgres Database (RLS) & Backend Functions — Help Center | Teammates.ai

How the AI Engineer provisions an isolated PostgreSQL database with Row-Level Security (RLS), migrations, and serverless backend functions for your full-stack apps.

## Dedicated Tenant-Isolated PostgreSQL with Row-Level Security

When your application needs persistent data—such as user accounts, saved workspaces, custom inventory, bookings, or multi-tenant SaaS records—the AI Engineer automatically provisions an **isolated PostgreSQL database** for your project.

- **Schema & Migrations**: The AI Engineer writes and applies SQL migrations automatically as you ask for new features in conversation.
- **Row-Level Security (RLS)**: Tables storing end-user records are protected by Postgres RLS policies so each signed-in customer can only read or mutate their own rows.
- **Zero Credential Leaks**: Database connection strings and service secrets stay strictly inside the managed backend runtime and are never exposed in browser bundles.

## Serverless Backend Functions & API Webhooks

Alongside your Postgres database, the AI Engineer builds server-side API routes and background webhooks to handle authenticated business logic, third-party API calls, Stripe webhook verification, and automated notifications triggered by Raya or Adam.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **Can I export my PostgreSQL schema and data if I move to self-hosting?**: Yes. Full source code, SQL migrations, and database export (`data_export`) are included on the Scale ($500/mo) and Enterprise plans.
