  1. Currently, Aiven fully manages backups for users. For regulatory reasons, some customers may want their own copy of backups/data.

  3. As a software engineer who often does infra stuff, I want to fully configure our Aiven vnet peering on Azure using terraform, so that we don't loose knowledge of how our infrastructure is configured and so that we can always tear it down and re-create it.

    Primarily I'm interested in allow_forwarded_traffic but I think ideally exposing all of the following Azure configurations through the aiven_azure_vpc_peering_connection terraform resource would be ideal.
    allow_virtual_network_access
    allow_forwarded_traffic
    allow_gateway_transit
    use_remote_gateways

  4. As DevOps Engineer
    I want to add new custom query to datadog database monitoring
    so that I can monitor custom metric that based on custom query that datadog does not send by default.
    In addition, I would like to provide some documentation regarding of running custom queries on datadog
    https://docs.datadoghq.com/database_monitoring/setup_postgres/selfhosted/?tab=postgres15#running-custom-queries

    This is quite important for us so we could remove any custom implementation to get custom metric via custom query.

  5. As an engineer
    I want to see links to release notes of updating software when applying maintenance
    so that I can quickly find out all the changes that are being applied and understand their relevancy to me

    Specifically when using the console I can see links to all release notes, rather than a generic notice that my service is being updated to a specific version.

  6. As a developer, I want to have easy discovery of the API.

    Currently, the OpenAPI is available as a blob link pointing to a specific GUID:
    blob:https://api.aiven.io/6b9e6327-8330-42d5-a813-0cc7379d5e02

    It would be nice if this was available as a consistent URI.
    https://api.aiven.io/v1/schema/

    And if discovery was available by a common RFC:
    RFC 8631 service-desc
    RFC 5988 describedby

  7. As SRE
    I want to have the Aiven Terraform Provider not throw errors on capital letters in plan names,
    so that I can not have weird errors when trying to deploy my services.
    Either forcing the plan name to be lowercase behind the scenes or throwing an error message that makes the issue clear would be helpful.

  8. As an account administrator signing up for Aiven,
    I want to register key individuals as business contacts for my account along with key technical contacts for the account,
    so that I can properly direct different people in my business to the right function for outreach. For example, I would like to register key account contact, key financial/billing contacts, key security contacts, etc. along with key technical contacts for where to reach out for escalation.
    I would like to provide this during sign up to Aiven or fill in/modify after the account has been established.

  9. As a devops

  11. As DBA I want:
    To control which alert emails I want to receive (high CPU usage, many shards per GB, tables without primary keys, etc) per project;
    To have an email subject with the alert type instead of the generic name;
    To be able to set different thresholds of the alerts (ex: CPU higher than X%);
    Set a Snooze/outage window for a specific period;
    Have a status page with all the alerts and each status (OK, NOK, etc...).

  12. As user
    I want to get a URI
    so that I can access my service

    If a service is running in a VPC and public access is allowed, the Connection Information for an Aiven service shows a row labeled "Access Route" with options "Dynamic" and "Public". As a new user, I thought this was for making a configuration setting change, so I was afraid to select Public. I think the use of the term "Dynamic" also threw me off. I didn't see anything in the docs and there's no help text in the UI to inform the user on what…

  13. As an SRE, I want to integrate DataDog easily to capture Aiven Platform logs so that I can get all of my observability data into my standard tool of choice and setup auditing and alerting. In addition, I would like to do so with the standard DataDog setup using OAuth and a tile from DataDog versus manually configuring both tools.

    https://docs.datadoghq.com/developers/integrations/oauth_for_integrations/ vs https://aiven.io/docs/integrations/datadog/datadog-logs which is the current setup

  14. As DBA, I want to be able to define a schedule to shutdown and turn on services automatically so that I can save costs on non-production environments.
    Example:
    at 19:00 Monday to Friday power off the instance
    at 06:00 Monday to Friday power on the instance

    I will leave this open to see if we get more votes over the next 6 months. This can be accomplished easily with a simple shell script and Aiven CLI with a cron job for example:


    0 19 * * 1-5 /path/to/shutdown.sh  # Shutdown at 7:00 PM (19:00), Monday-Friday 0 6 * * 1-5 /path/to/startup.sh   # Startup at 6:00 AM (06:00), Monday-Friday


    #!/bin/bash


    # Replace with your Aiven project and service names

    PROJECT_NAME="your-project-name"

    SERVICE_NAME="your-service-name"


    aiven service stop/start $PROJECT_NAME $SERVICE_NAME



  15. As a platform engineer who is running shared services, I want to be able to provision, monitor, and manage my Aiven services from Backstage... So that I can have a fully integrated developer portal to make my engineering teams more successful at self-serving to make them more efficient.

    In addition:
    As a developer, I want to quickly discover and explore existing Aiven services within Backstage to avoid duplicating data infrastructure and accelerate my development work.

    As a developer, I want to have clear visibility into the status and health of Aiven services my applications depend on, directly within Backstage.

  16. As an SRE or DBA, I want to be able to see the SLA of my services so that I can understand how well the service can provide the business needs we have for managed services. This allows me to report back on the quality of the Aiven services and hold Aiven accountable for the agreement. Ideally, if this were in my console, it could roll up the overall SLA of our Aiven services across the account.
