Introduces a long-form use case page for developers building apps on Neon's backend primitives, with agent-first setup and links to docs and Build on Neon templates.
Deploys the Databricks-backed positioning from the backend beta launch post in the AI Gateway section, adds the neon init hero image, and moves the audience note into an admonition.
Builds out Lakebase Postgres, Object Storage, and Functions with positioning from the product posts, and embeds the homepage service videos as autoplay, no-controls animations in each product section.
New long-form use case page covering the branching narrative: one branch per developer, per pull request, per preview, and per test run, plus restore, automation, customer case studies, and how the branch model now extends to Object Storage, auth, and Functions.
Switch quotes to the avatar-based QuoteBlock element used on the AI agents page, add diagrams to the developer, pull request, and restore workflows, expand the lakebase architecture explanation with the standard-vs-lakebase diagram, and move scattered inline links into three admonitions.
Makes the autoscaling argument for variable traffic: provisioning a fixed instance for peak wastes compute and still degrades under spikes, while Lakebase Postgres allocates compute as load changes. Sources its numbers from the compute autoscaling report and quotes customers with spiky workloads.
Uses the zoomed autoscaling graphic as the hero and regenerates the social preview from it. The chart legend was pale in the source and inverted to near-black, so relight it to a readable gray. Simplifies two headings and adds a highlight block making the 2026 argument against fixed compute.
Keys the flat background out of the hero so only the chart sits on the page background. Keyed pixels are set to black as well as transparent, since Next image optimization only preserves PNG alpha under /docs/ and these pages are always dark.
Argues that conventional Postgres becomes operationally heavy at multi-TB scale, then shows how Lakebase architecture keeps restore, branching, and replicas independent of size. Sources recovery stats from the restores survey and cost framing from the traconiq migration.
Updated subtitle for clarity and impact.
Frames Lakebase as the reason restore, environments, replicas, and API ops get simpler, then hands off to each practical section in turn.
Replaces the two stats that the figures now carry, and credits the restores survey as the source below them.
Replace the old Faster development / Variable load / Database per user cards with Full-stack apps, Branching workflows, Bursty workloads, Large databases, Agents, and Platforms, and update the hero copy to match.
Swap the Full-stack apps card to Daisy’s backend-focused quote, add a Backend tag icon, and pair it with Automation instead of Instant provisioning.

This PR rebuilds the Solutions tab end to end.
Adds four use-case pages (full-stack apps, branching workflows, bursty workloads, large databases), rewrites
/platforms, and repoints both entry points at them: the Solutions dropdown and the use-cases index.Two superseded pages are retired with permanent redirects.
This is an integration branch for seven PRs, so the whole tab lands in one merge and no intermediate state ships a nav link to a page that does not exist yet: #5539, #5540, #5546, #5549, #5553, #5554, #5578.
