PostgreSQL is an open source, object-relational database built for extensibility, data integrity, and speed. Its concurrency support makes it fully ACID-compliant, and it supports dynamic loading and catalog-driven operations to let users customize its data types, functions, and more.
PostgreSQL clusters now support pgvector
v0.7.2. You can verify your access to this feature by running \dx
from psql
or querying pg_extension
and locating vector
in the output. If you do not have access to this pgvector version yet, update your PostgreSQL cluster. For a full list of supported extensions, see our guide Supported PostgreSQL Extensions.
Managed databases now supports log forwarding to OpenSearch, Elasticsearch, and Rsyslog. You can create and manage log sinks using the control panel and DigitalOcean API. For more detailed steps, see our guides for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and Kafka.
You can no longer create new PostgreSQL 12 managed databases. However, you can still fork existing PostgreSQL 12 clusters until PostgreSQL 12’s end of life on 14 November 2024.
