<Summary type="rolling" window-days="90" release-count="7">
Prisma ORM is streamlining its developer experience while building out Postgres-native features. The v7.3.0 release introduced compiler flexibility with `fast` and `small` build modes and optimized raw queries to bypass compilation overhead entirely. Since then, v7.4.0 added a query caching layer for Prisma Client, and v7.5.0 shipped nested transaction savepoints for SQL databases. Most recently, v7.6.0 and v7.7.0 focused on Postgres integration—adding `prisma postgres link` support and a new `prisma bootstrap` command that consolidates the full Postgres setup into a single interactive flow.
</Summary>

<Summary type="monthly" period="March 2026" release-count="2">

## ⚡ January 21, 2026 - ORM Release

**Fast and Small Query Compilers**: Introduced new `compilerBuild` option for the client generator with two options: `fast` and `small`. Allows swapping the underlying Query Compiler engine based on performance vs size trade-offs. Default is `fast` mode.

**Raw Query Optimization**: Raw queries (`$executeRaw`, `$queryRaw`) now skip the query compiler and query interpreter infrastructure, sending them directly to the driver adapter for reduced overhead.

**MSSQL Update**: Updated `@prisma/adapter-mssql` to use MSSQL v12.2.0.

**SQLite Fixes**: Pinned better-sqlite3 version to avoid SQLite 3.51.0 bug. Users of `@prisma/better-sqlite3` should upgrade to v7.3.0.

**@map Enum Revert**: Reverted `@map` enums to v6.19.0 behavior due to breaking changes introduced in v7.0.

**BigInt JSON Precision**: Fixed BigInt precision loss in JSON aggregation by casting BigInt columns to `::text` inside `JSONB_BUILD_OBJECT` calls to preserve full precision when parsed in JavaScript.
</Release>

## ⚡ `prisma-client`: runtime improvements and schema flexibility

Simplified Prisma ORM runtime options for Prisma Client to be more consistent and easier to understand. Key changes: `node` has been removed (use `runtime = "nodejs"`), `deno-deploy` has been removed (use `runtime = "deno"`), `vercel` has been replaced by `runtime = "vercel-edge"`, `edge-light` is now an alias for `vercel-edge`.
