30 September 2016 | PostgreSQL 9.6 is Released: Contribution of Postgres Professional

PostgreSQL 9.6 was released yesterday. This is a great release which provides to users set of outstanding new features. We are especially happy that Postgres Professional did substantial contribution to this release.

mamonsu

An active monitoring agent for Postgres Pro. Based on zabbix, mamonsu provides an extensible cross-platform solution that can collect and visualize multiple Postgres Pro and system metrics.

pg_pathman

The pg_pathman module provides optimized partitioning mechanism and functions to manage partitions.

pg_variables

Functions for defining and using variables in client sessions.

JsQuery

JsQuery – is a language to query jsonb data type, introduced in PostgreSQL release 9.4. It's primary goal is to provide an additional functionality to jsonb (currently missing in PostgreSQL), such as a simple and effective way to search in nested objects and arrays, more comparison operators with indexes support.

Connection pooling

Working with large number of simultaneous connections almost inevitably leads to usage of connection pools. Unfortunately, present pooling solutions are very limited in access to all PostgreSQL features.

Pluggable storages

We achieved a significant progress in PostgreSQL extendability: FDWs, custom access methods, generic WAL. And we’re not so far from having pluggable storage engines. Concept of API was presented at PGCon 2016.

Better temporary tables

Temporary tables are often being used. Their performance could be increased if they are removed from system catalog. Also it is attractive to allow using temporary tables on read-only standbys.
