112:T490, ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Added support for the Postgres `xml2` and `pgjwt` extensions. For more information about Postgres extensions supported by Neon, see [Postgres extensions](/docs/extensions/pg-extensions). - Compute: Updated the versions for the following Postgres extensions: - Updated the `address_standardizer`, `address_standardizer_data_us`, `postgis`, `postgis_raster`, `postgis_tiger_geocoder`, `postgis_topology` extensions to version `3.3.2`. - Updated the `plv8`, `plls`, `plcoffee` extensions to `3.1.5`. - Updated the `h3_pg` extension to `4.1.2`. Updating an extension version requires running an `ALTER EXTENSION UPDATE TO ` statement. For example, to update the `postgis_topology` extension to the newly supported version, run this statement: ```sql ALTER EXTENSION postgis_topology UPDATE TO '3.3.2'; ``` - Pageserver: Corrected the storage size metrics calculation to ensure that only active branches are counted. - Proxy: Enabled `OpenTelemetry` tracing to capture all incoming requests. This change enables Neon to perform an end-to-end trace when a new connection is established. 113:T5de, ### Fixes & improvements - API: The Neon API specification now shows the default (`10`) and maximum (`100`) pagination values for the [List projects API endpoint](/docs/reference/api/projects/list-projects). These settings were enforced previously but were not included in the Neon API specification. - API: Updating a project name resulted in the loss of values defined in `default_endpoint_settings` property, which defines custom settings for project's compute endpoints. - Control Plane: Increased the PgBouncer maximum client connection setting from 1000 to 10000, enabling Neon to support up to `10000` simultaneous connections. For more information about connection pooling in Neon, see [Connection pooling](/docs/connect/connection-pooling). - Control Plane: Added an internal retry mechanism for connections to the Neon proxy, which improves the success rate for connection attempts. The Neon proxy is a service that accepts and handles connections from clients that use the Postgres protocol. - Control Plane: A chain of operations failed to run in the expected order due to a lock related issue. In addition to operations running out of sequence, some operations were executed more than once. - UI: Added Content-Security-Policy (CSP) HTTP response headers to enhance Neon Console security. CSP headers provide an additional layer of security for web pages by allowing a website to control what resources (such as scripts, stylesheets, and images) can be loaded and executed on its pages. 114:T4eb, ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Added support for the Postgres `pgvector`, `plls` and `plcoffee` extensions. For more information about Postgres extensions supported by Neon, see [Postgres extensions](/docs/extensions/pg-extensions). - Pageserver: Added an experimental feature that automatically evicts layer files from Pageservers to optimize local storage space usage. When enabled for a project, Pageservers periodically check the access timestamps of the project's layer files. If the most recent layer file access is further in the past than a configurable threshold, the Pageserver removes the layer file from local storage. The authoritative copy of the layer file remains in S3. A Pageserver can download a layer file from S3 on-demand if it is needed again, to reconstruct a page version for a client request, for example. - Proxy: Significantly reduced network latencies for WebSocket and pooled connections by implementing caching mechanism for compute node connection information and enabling the `TCP_NODELAY` protocol option. The `TCP_NODELAY` option causes segments to be sent as soon as possible, even if there is only a small amount of data. For more information, refer to the [TCP protocol man page](https://linux.die.net/man/7/tcp). 115:T909, ### Fixes & improvements - Integrations: You can now integrate Neon with your Vercel project directly from your Vercel account. The new integration, which is currently in Beta, is available from the [Vercel Integration Marketplace](https://vercel.com/integrations/neon). The integration allows you to connect your Vercel project to a new or existing Neon project. It also enables creating a database branch for each Vercel preview deployment and for your Vercel development environment. For more information about the Neon-Vercel integration, see [Connect Vercel and Neon](/docs/guides/vercel-overview). - Control Plane: You can now enable connection pooling in Neon for individual connections. Pooling is enabled by adding a `-pooler` suffix to the endpoint ID in the Neon hostname. For example: ```text shouldWrap postgresql://alex:AbC123dEf@ep-cool-darkness-123456-pooler.us-east-2.aws.neon.tech/dbname?sslmode=require&channel_binding=require ``` Connections that do not specify the `-pooler` suffix connect to the database directly. The ability to enable pooling for individual connections supports workflows that require both pooled and non-pooled connections to the same database. For example, serverless applications that use Prisma Client require a pooled connection, while Prisma Migrate requires a direct connection to the database. For more information, see [How to use connection pooling](/docs/connect/connection-pooling#how-to-use-connection-pooling). The previous method of enabling connection pooling for a compute endpoint is deprecated. When switching to the new per-connection method, be sure to disable connection pooling at the compute endpoint. You can do so by [editing the compute endpoint](/docs/manage/computes#edit-a-compute-endpoint). - Console: Added validation to ensure that emails are provided in the expected format when creating a Neon account. - Control Plane: Added validation for the Log Sequence Number (LSN) provided when creating a branch from a particular LSN value to prevent the possibility of creating a branch from an unrelated parent branch. An appropriate error is now reported when an invalid LSN value is provided. - UI: With the removal of the endpoint limit, endpoints no longer appear in the **Project limits** widget on the Neon **Dashboard**. 116:T830, ### Fixes & improvements - API: The response body for projects, branches, and endpoints now exposes a `creation_source` property. Currently, the `creation_source` property identifies the `console` as the creation source in all cases but will eventually identify other sources, such as the Neon API. - API: Listing projects with the Neon API now supports cursor-based pagination. Pagination enables limiting the number of responses displayed at one time, which is useful when a response includes a large number of projects. By default, the first 10 projects are returned. You can set the `limit` parameter to request up to 100 projects. - API: Fixed a race condition that occurred when creating a project and attempting to fetch information about branch in the same project. - Control Plane: Added support for OpenTelemetry for a number of operations. OpenTelemetry is an observability framework that assists in generating and capturing telemetry data from cloud-native software. - Control Plane: Removed the `stop_compute` operation, which is no longer used. It was replaced by `suspend_compute`. - Control Plane: Fixed a `cannot execute GRANT in a read-only` error that occurred when a database owner enabled the `default_transaction_read_only` setting, preventing the Control Plane from configuring the compute instance. - UI: Revised the layout of the Neon Console to improve navigation. The following enhancements were implemented: - A new sidebar with icons replaces the navigation bar that was located at the top of the console. - **Operations**, **Databases**, and **Users** pages, previously accessed from the **Project settings** page, are now directly accessible from the sidebar. - Links to **Community**, **Feedback**, **Docs**, **Release notes**, and **Support**, previously located in a **Help** menu in the navigation bar, were moved to the sidebar for easier access. - The Neon account avatar was moved from the top right corner of the console to the sidebar. - UI: Fixed the positioning of selection menus in the console to avoid scrolling outside intended boundaries. 117:T444, ### Postgres extension support Added support for the Postgres `unit` extension. For more information about Postgres extensions supported by Neon, see [Postgres extensions](/docs/extensions/pg-extensions). ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Removed logic that updated roles each time a Neon compute instance was restarted. Roles were updated on each restart to address a password-related backward compatibility issue that is no longer relevant. - Pageserver: Reimplemented the layer map used to track the data layers in a branch. The layer map now uses an immutable binary search tree (BST) data structure, which improves data layer lookup performance over the previous R-tree implementation. The data required to reconstruct page versions is stored as data layers in Neon Pageservers. - Pageserver: Changed the garbage collection (`gc`) interval from 100 seconds to 60 minutes. This change reduces the frequency of layer map locks. - Pageserver: Implemented an asynchronous pipe for communication with the Write Ahead Log (WAL) redo process, which helps improves OLAP query performance. 118:T575, ### Postgres extension support Added support for several Postgres extensions. Newly supported extensions include: - `bloom` - `pgrowlocks` - `intagg` - `pgstattuple` - `earthdistance` - `address_standardizer` - `address_standardizer_data_us` For more information about Postgres extensions supported by Neon, see [Postgres extensions](/docs/extensions/pg-extensions). ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Updated the list of Postgres client libraries and runtimes that Neon tests for connection support. The `pg8000` Python Postgres driver, version 1.29.3 and higher, now supports connecting to Neon. - Compute: Added statistics to `EXPLAIN` that show prefetch hits and misses for sequential scans. - Proxy: Updated the error message that is reported when attempting to connect from a client or driver that does not support Server Name Indication (SNI). For more information about the SNI requirement, see [Connection errors](/docs/connect/connection-errors). Previously, the error message indicated that the "Project ID" is not specified. The error message now states that the "Endpoint ID" is not specified. Connecting to Neon with a Project ID remains supported for backward compatibility, but connecting with an Endpoint ID is now the recommended connection method. For general information about connecting to Neon, see [Connect from any application](/docs/connect/connect-from-any-app/). 119:Tb75, ### Fixes & improvements - API: Added a `branch_logical_size_limit` attribute to the Neon API [Project](/docs/reference/api/projects/get-project) response body, which shows the logical data size limit for project branches. This attribute replaces the `logical_size_limit` attribute, which was shown in the [Branch](/docs/reference/api/branches/get-project-branch) response body. The [Neon Free Tier](/docs/introduction/free-tier/) limits the logical data size of a branch to 3072 MiB (3 GiB). - API: Added the ability to delete or reassign the endpoint associated with a project's root branch. Previously, these actions could not be performed on the endpoint associated with a project's root branch. You can edit or delete an endpoint by selecting **Edit** or **Delete** from the kebab menu in the table on the **Endpoints** page. - API: Updated descriptions and examples in the [Neon API Reference](/docs/reference/api). - API: Added validation to ensure that the name specified when creating a role does not exceed 63 bytes. Role names longer than 63 bytes caused compute startup issues. - Control Plane: Migrated older branches that were created using the Neon API v1 to their parent project. Branches created with Neon API v1 existed as separate Neon projects. After the migration, the branches exist as Neon API v2 branch and endpoint objects that belong to a parent project. Connection strings for migrated branches, which use the old `project_id` in the hostname, are no longer valid. Instead of the `project_id`, an `endpoint_id` must be specified in the hostname. For information about constructing a valid connection string, see [Connect from any application](/docs/connect/connect-from-any-app/). An email with migration instructions was sent to affected users. - UI: Added a **Pooler enabled** toggle control to the **Edit endpoint** dialog to permit enabling or disabling connection pooling for endpoint compute instances. The same control is available on the **Create endpoint** dialog. Previously, connection pooling was enabled or disabled for a project, and the control was located in **Settings > General**. Connection pooling is disabled, by default. For more information about Neon's connection pooling feature, see [Connection pooling](/docs/connect/connection-pooling/). - UI: Completed the migration of the Neon Console from Neon API v1 to [Neon API v2](/docs/reference/api). The Neon API v1 is deprecated. - UI: Added a **Region** column to the **Projects** dialog in the Neon Console to show the region where a Neon project resides. - UI: Improved WebSockets integration with the Neon Console, and added Websocket support for endpoint updates. - UI: Passwords are now temporarily displayed in the **Connection Details** widget on the project **Dashboard** after project creation and password reset operations. The password is displayed until you navigate away from the Neon Console or refresh the browser. 11a:T4ca, ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Added support for sequential scan prefetch, which reduces round trips between Computes and Pageservers. Sequential scan prefetch allows fetching numerous pages at once instead of one by one, improving I/O performance for operations such as table scans. - Compute: Added support for the `pg_prewarm` Postgres extension, which utilizes the above-mentioned sequential scan prefetch feature. The `pg_prewarm` extension provides a convenient way to load data into the Postgres buffer cache after a cold start. For information about Postgres extensions supported by Neon, see [Postgres extensions](/docs/extensions/pg-extensions). - Compute: Updated supported Postgres versions to 14.6 and 15.1, respectively. - Pageserver: Updated the `storage_sync` operation to make it more robust and reliable while syncing files between Pageservers and S3. - Safekeeper: Replaced [etcd](https://etcd.io/) subscriptions with a custom Neon [storage broker](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/blob/main/docs/storage_broker.md). The storage broker allows Safekeepers and Pageservers to learn which storage node holds a timeline and the status of a timeline while avoiding too many connections between nodes. 11b:Ta3b, ### Fixes & improvements - API: Added request and response body examples to the Neon API v2 specification. - API: Disabled deleting or changing the endpoint compute instance associated with a project's root branch. - API: Added a `logical_size_limit` attribute to the branch schema, which shows the data size limit for a branch. - API: Renamed the `max_project_size` attribute in Neon API v1 specification to `branch_logical_size_limit`. - API: Removed the `max_project_size` attribute from Neon v2 API schema. - API: Fixed a project duplication issue in the list projects method in the Neon API v1. - Control Plane: Implemented a forced suspension of endpoints that are unresponsive for more than 2 hours. - Control Plane: Improved the reliability of the passwordless auth feature. - Control Plane: Fixed an issue that caused an endpoint to be created in a region other than the project's region. - UI: Removed the Neon invite gate. An invitation is no longer required to try Neon. It is available to everyone. For more information, refer to the [Neon is Live!](/blog/neon-serverless-postgres-is-live/) blog post. - UI: Released the Neon database branching feature. Branching is now available to all users. For more information, refer to the [Database Branching for Postgres with Neon](/blog/database-branching-for-postgres-with-neon/) blog post. - UI: Added new and improved popup dialogs for project, branch, and role creation. - UI: Added an **Endpoints** page to the Neon Console for creating and managing endpoints, which are the compute resources in your Neon project. For more information about endpoints, see [Endpoints](/docs/manage/computes/). - UI: Enabled creating branches with data up to a specified [Log Sequence Number (LSN)](/docs/reference/glossary#lsn). - UI: Updated the passwordless auth feature to show the branch name on the browser page that is displayed during authentication. - UI: Updated the **Create branch** page to display the local timezone when selecting the **Time** option during branch creation. - UI: Removed branches without endpoints from the branch selector in Neon SQL Editor. To query a branch, the branch must have an associated endpoint through which a connection can be established. - UI: Added a **Free tier** widget to the Neon **Dashboard**, which shows how many branches and endpoints you have created and the status of your free tier limits. The widget also shows the data size limit per branch, which is 3 GiB. For information about Free Tier limits, see [Free Tier](/docs/introduction/free-tier/). - UI: Enabled reset password functionality for non-root branches. 11c:Ta7e, ### Fixes & improvements - API: Creating branches using the Neon API v1 is now deprecated. - API: Added support for cursor pagination when listing operations. - API: Added validation for empty names to branch and project endpoints. - API: Added LSN validation to the create branch endpoint. - API: Made the `parent_id` and `name` attributes optional when creating a branch. - API: Added a complete endpoint hostname value in the endpoint response body. - API: Added support for changing the branch of an endpoint. - API: Added an `allow_connections` flag for endpoints to permit disabling connections to the endpoint. - API: Added support for creating a branch without an endpoint, which is now the default if the `endpoints` attribute is not specified. Creating a branch without an endpoint supports backup uses cases and useful in scenarios where the number of branches exceeds the number of available endpoints due to endpoint limits. - API: Added response examples to the API specification. - API: Create project and create endpoints now treat the `region_id` parameter as `region.id`. The attribute was previously treated as `region.handle`. Code that uses these endpoints may need to be updated. - API: Fixed the ordering of operations and projects. - API: Corrected the error reported when a duplicate branch name is used. - Control Plane: Added handling for ID collisions when creating a branch or endpoint. - Control Plane: Renamed the ready-to-use database created in the root branch of a Neon project from `main` to `neondb`. - Control Plane: Added new autoscaling limits. - Control Plane: Added a project maintenance flag. - Control Plane: Added a region maintenance and testing flag. - UI: Added a branch ID value and **Create branch** button to the branch details page in the console. - UI: Updated the Neon Free Tier limits. See [Free Tier](/docs/introduction/free-tier/) for details. The new Neon Free Tier limits apply to both new and existing projects, but the previous 10 GiB storage limit will be honored for existing projects that currently have more than 3 GiB of data. - UI: Added a **Delete endpoint** button to the **Endpoints** page. - UI: Updated the Neon [passwordless auth](/docs/connect/passwordless-connect/) feature to select an endpoint to connect to instead of a project. - UI: Fixed an endpoint polling issue. - UI: Stopped polling when deleting a project. - UI: Added handling for errors that occur when polling endpoint status. - UI: Removed visibility of internal service roles. - UI: Added handling for sign-in during passwordless auth. - UI: Fixed the NodeJS connection string example in the **Connection Details** widget on the **Dashboard**. 11d:T9c7, ### Fixes & improvements - Control Plane: Introduced a maintenance mode for Neon projects. When a project is placed into maintenance mode, its endpoints are forcibly suspended and modifications are not permitted until maintenance is completed. - Control Plane: Added support for Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) to the Neon API v1 and v2. - Control Plane: Added descriptions for endpoint categories to the Neon API v2, and changed the `ApiKey` tag to `API Key`. - Control Plane: Added the ability to fetch all endpoints for a specified branch to the Neon API v2. Thank you to our Neon community member for the [feature request](https://community.neon.tech/t/api-route-feature-request-suggestion-get-v2-projects-project-id-branches-branch-id-endpoints/246). - Control Plane: Added the ability to create endpoints without specifying an instance ID to the Neon API v2. - Control Plane: Added the ability to retrieve information about the current user to the Neon API v2. User details such as login, email, and other parameters specified in the OpenAPI specification can now be retrieved. - Control Plane: Added a `"Content-Type"` header with an `"application/json"` value to Neon API v2 error responses. - Control Plane: Fixed a memory leak that occurred when handling SQL requests. - Control Plane: Improved diagnostic information by extracting error messages from Pageserver responses during project creation. - Control Plane: Stopped manually rolling back the current transaction when the user cancels the context. The Go driver [ConnBeginTx](https://pkg.go.dev/database/sql/driver#ConnBeginTx) interface performs this operation automatically. - UI: Postgres 15 is now the default version when creating a Neon project. - UI: Added support for renaming branches. To rename a branch, select the branch on the **Branches** page in the Neon Console and click **Rename branch**. - UI: Added `TIME` and `LSN` fields to the branch details page for child branches. The `TIME` field shows the time value selected when creating a branch with data up to a specified point in time. The `LSN` field shows a Log Sequence Number (LSN), indicating that the branch was created with data up to that LSN. - UI: Added a branch icon to the branch selection menu on the **Databases** and **Users** pages in the Neon Console. - UI: Added badges for various elements on the branch details page in the Neon Console. - UI: Fixed an issue that prevented project and endpoint statuses from being updated when making changes. 11e:Tdf2, ### Support for more regions Added support for the US East (Ohio), Europe (Frankfurt), and Asia Pacific (Singapore) regions, allowing you to create Neon projects closer to your application servers. For more information about Neon's region support, see [Regions](/docs/conceptual-guides/regions/). ### Branching enhancements Updated Neon's branching capabilities. The following enhancements were introduced: - Added a **Branches** page to the Neon Console for creating and managing branches. - Each project now has a root branch called `main`. - Branches now belong to a project. You can create a branch from your project's root branch (`main`) or from another branch in the project. - You can now define the data to include in a branch. You can include all data up to the current point in time or up to a past point in time. - Each branch is now created with a named endpoint, which is the compute instance associated with a branch. Connecting to a branch requires connecting to the branch's endpoint. You can obtain a connection string for a branch endpoint from the **Connection Details** widget on the Neon **Dashboard**. For more information about Neon's branching capabilities, see [Branching](/docs/introduction/branching), and [Manage branches](/docs/manage/branches). _Neon Branching capabilities are not yet publicly available. If you would like to try this feature, contact us at [iwantbranching@neon.tech](mailto:iwantbranching@neon.tech), describing your use case and requesting that Neon enable branching for your account._ ### Connection string changes With the addition of support for new regions and updates to Neon's branching capabilities, changes were made to the hostname in Neon connection strings. Previously, a hostname had this format: `.cloud.neon.tech`. With the introduction of new regions, a `` and `` value were added to the hostname for projects created in newly supported regions. With the update to branching capabilities, `` was replaced by ``. As a result of these changes: - Projects created in the original Neon region, US West (Oregon), have this hostname format: `.cloud.neon.tech`. - Projects created in the newly supported regions, have this hostname format: `...neon.tech`. The old hostname format continues to be supported for projects created before these changes were introduced. ### Postgres keyword highlighting Added highlighting support for [Postgres 15 SQL Keywords](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/sql-keywords-appendix.html) to Neon's SQL Editor. Keywords are highlighted when entered in the SQL Editor. ### Fixes & improvements - Control Plane: Improved handling of OAuth consent challenges. A user is now directed to the destination URL to complete the login or consent request instead of receiving a `410 Gone` error when resubmitting an OAuth consent challenge. - Control Plane: Fixed memory leaks that could occur for background operations started in a context that does not expire. An operation failure could have resulted in resources not being cleaned up. - UI: Added the ability to display the navigation bar at the top of the Neon Console as a side drawer menu on small screens. - UI: Fixed an issue in the SQL Editor that prevented errors from being reported when rerunning multi-statement queries. - UI: Updated the `.pgpass` configuration instructions provided after creating a project or resetting a password. The instructions did not include the required Postgres port number. 11f:T458, ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Added support for a future implementation of sequential scan prefetch, which improves I/O performance for operations such as table scans. - Compute: Moved the backpressure throttling algorithm to the Neon extension to minimize changes to the Neon Postgres core code, and added a `backpressure_throttling_time` function that returns the total time spent throttling since the system was started. - Compute: Added support for the `h3_pg` and `plv8` Postgres extensions. For information about Postgres extensions supported by Neon, see [Postgres extensions](/docs/extensions/pg-extensions). - Pageserver: Increased the default `compaction_period` setting to 20 seconds to reduce the frequency of polling that is performed to determine if compaction is required. The frequency of polling with the previous setting of 1 could result in excessive CPU consumption when there are numerous tenants and projects. - Pageserver: Added initial support for online tenant relocation. - Pageserver: Added support for multiple Postgres versions. - Proxy: Improved error messages and logging. 120:T4b3, ### Fixes & improvements - API: Added a `protected: boolean` flag to the roles public API response. - API: Changed region and platform ids from serial numbers to strings in the public API. - API: Changed the operations id from a serial number to a UUID type in the public API. - Control Plane: Added an internal mechanism for relocating projects between Pageservers. - Control Plane: Stopped sending metrics to Grafana Cloud. - Control Plane: Removed usage of the obsolete `zenith_ctl` binary. - Control Plane: Split the monolithic project object into project, branches, and endpoints in the internal database schema. - Control Plane: Fixed a [passwordless auth](/docs/connect/passwordless-connect) issue that occurred when creating a new project using the project selection interface. - Integrations: Added `read`, `update`, `delete` project access scopes for OAuth applications. - Integrations: Added the ability to select access scopes and projects on the OAuth consent page. - UI: Fixed a failure that occurred after receiving an empty response in the SQL Editor. - UI: Fixed an issue to ensure that table names are reset when switching between schemas on the **Tables** page in the Neon Console. 121:T433, ### Fixes & improvements - Control Plane: Set `max_replication_write_lag` to `15 MB` to tune the backpressure mechanism and improve PostgresSQL responsiveness under load. - Control Plane: Improved the ability to investigate performance issues by collecting and saving more detailed compute node startup time metrics. - UI: The Neon SQL Editor now maintains a history of previously executed queries and permits saving queries. For more information about these capabilities, see [Query with Neon's SQL Editor](/docs/get-started/query-with-neon-sql-editor/). - UI: Added token-based authorization to [Neon's public API](/docs/reference/api). - UI: Changed the display status of operations waiting in the queue from `In progress` to `Scheduling`. - UI: Disabled controls that incorrectly remained enabled while the Neon project was in a transitive state. - UI: Fixed incorrect encoding when switching between code samples in the **Connection Details** widget on the project Dashboard, and added descriptions to connection string examples. - UI: Fixed various typos and errors. 122:T8c6, ### Fixes & improvements - Compute: Enabled the use of the `CREATE EXTENSION` statement for users that are not database owners. - Compute: Updated the Postgres version to 14.4. - Compute: Renamed the following custom configuration parameters: - `zenith.page_server_connstring` to `neon.pageserver_connstring` - `zenith.zenith_tenant` to `neon.tenant_id` - `zenith.zenith_timeline` to `neon.timeline_id` - `zenith.max_cluster_size` to `neon.max_cluster_size` - `wal_acceptors` to `safekeepers` - Control Plane: Renamed `zenith_admin` role to `cloud_admin`. - Pageserver: Implemented a page service `fullbackup` endpoint that works like basebackup but also sends relational files. - Pageserver: Added support for importing a base backup taken from a standalone Postgres instance or another Pageserver using `psql` copy. - Pageserver: Fixed the database size calculation to count Visibility Maps (VMs) and Free Space Maps (FSMs) in addition to the main fork of the relation. - Pageserver: Updated the timeline size reported when `DROP DATABASE` is executed. - Pageserver: Decreased the number of threads by running gc and compaction in a blocking tokio thread pool. - Pageserver: Switched to per-tenant attach/detach. Download operations of all timelines for one tenant are now grouped together so that branches can be used safely with attach/detach. - Proxy: Added support for propagating SASL/SCRAM Postgres authentication errors to clients. - Safekeeper: Added support for backing up Write-Ahead Logs (WAL) to S3 storage for disaster recovery. - Safekeeper: Added support for downloading WAL from S3 storage on demand. - Safekeeper: Switched to [etcd](https://etcd.io/) subscriptions to keep Pageservers up to date with the Safekeeper status. - Safekeeper: Implemented JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication in the Safekeeper HTTP API. - Safekeeper: Fixed the walreceiver connection selection mechanism: - Reconnecting to a Safekeeper immediately after it fails is now avoided by limiting candidates to those with the fewest connection attempts. - Increased the `max_lsn_wal_lag` default setting to avoid constant reconnections during normal work. - Fixed `wal_connection_attempts` maintenance, preventing busy reconnection loops. 57:["$","$37",null,{"fallback":null,"children":["$","$L58",null,{"searchInputClassName":"right-full mr-16 top-[208px] lt:top-[192px] xl:mr-3.5 lg:right-0 lg:mr-0 lg:top-3 md:static! md:right-auto! md:top-auto! md:mt-4","posts":[{"slug":"generate-embeddings-with-neon-ai-gateway","date":"2026-10-02T12:00:00","modifiedGmt":"2026-10-02T12:00:00.000Z","title":"Generate embeddings with Neon AI Gateway","subtitle":"","excerpt":"Neon AI Gateway now serves embedding models on the same OpenAI-compatible endpoint and with the same credential you already use for chat.
