Reset a branch's Object Storage from its parent

Reset from parent now rolls back a branch's Object Storage along with its Postgres data. When you reset a branch, its buckets and objects return to the parent's current state, so any object storage uploads, overwrites, and deletes you made on the branch are also reverted.

You can reset a branch from the Neon Console, CLI, or API. See Reset from parent for the steps.

Resetting Object Storage is available now in AWS US East (Ohio) (aws-us-east-2) and AWS Europe (Frankfurt) (aws-eu-central-1), with support for additional regions rolling out soon.

Automating workloads with Neon Functions

Last week we announced that the Neon backend is generally available, with Functions running next to your database. This week, a new guide shows how to use Neon Functions to automate workloads with Function Triggers: run a Function on a UTC cron schedule or when a file lands in an Object Storage bucket.

Learn how to declare a function in code using a neon.ts file and apply it with neon deploy.

// neon.ts
functions: {
  reports: { name: 'Reports', source: './functions/reports.ts' },
},
triggers: {
  nightly: {
    type: 'schedule',
    function: 'reports',
    cron: '0 6 * * *',
  },
},

Realtime is coming to Neon

Realtime sync is coming to Neon. The team behind Electric, the Postgres sync engine, joined Neon at Databricks and is building native realtime and end-to-end reactivity into the platform, designed to work with branching and scale to zero. Read our Q&A with Electric co-founder James Arthur.
