-### Remove the Prisma Client extension
-
-Before you proceed to use your own database, you should remove the Prisma client extension required for Prisma Postgres:
-
-```terminal
-npm uninstall @prisma/extension-accelerate
-```
-
-Remove the client extension from your `PrismaClient` instance:
-
-```diff
-- const prisma = new PrismaClient().$extends(withAccelerate())

-
 ### Your own PostgreSQL database
 
-To use your own PostgreSQL database remove the `@prisma/extension-accelerate` package and remove the Prisma client extension.
+This example already uses a standard PostgreSQL connection with the `@prisma/adapter-pg` adapter. You can connect to any PostgreSQL database using a standard connection string.
