  1. As developer,
    I want to deploy a cost-efficient and fast vector database
    so that I can develop a fast-serving RAG application with large datasets.

  2. As a database administrator, I want to have the option to use the PGroonga extension so that I can take advantage of advanced text search capabilities, including full-text search with regular expressions and n-gram tokenization.
    In addition, PGroonga offers better performance for certain types of search operations, which is especially important for handling large datasets efficiently and improving the search functionality in applications.

  3. As a software engineer
    I want to use pg_embedding
    so that I can perform faster (20x) vector searches in PostgreSQL.
    In addition, ML use cases are everywhere now and reducing search times will impact many projects.

  4. As an Operations Engineer
    I want to have logs in JSON format
    so that I can process them in third-party log management and analytics systems without having to write custom parsing rules.

    so that I can have Scalable Vector Search in PostgreSQL.

  6. As a developer or database administrator our customer is planning to use Apache Age (https://github.com/apache/age) in their Managed Service for Timescale (MST) deployments which is provided by Aiven.
    I cannot see this extension in the list but is there any way or plan to add this into the managed services.

    Thanks!

  7. As a developer,
    I want to connect to my Aiven for Postgres services without providing credentials and use only certificate authentication as offered by Postgres https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/auth-cert.html
    so that I can be compliant with my internal security policies

  8. As a Systems Administrator
    I want to see PGBouncer Metrics (CPU/RAM/Network Usage) on the Aiven Console Metrics page
    so that I can quickly and easily see resource utilization across both PostgreSQL and PGBouncer.

  9. As Database administrator, with a large footprint of applications being served,
    I want to have a read only replica cluster in another region, that is sized appropriately, with it's own read replica nodes provisioned,
    so that I can fail over and that read replica can quickly handle the production workload in the scenario of a disaster in one region/cloud vendor, to minimise any disruption to service.

  10. As a database administrator or developer,

    I want to easily copy and compare SQL statements which would be easier to do with a monospace type font. It is visually difficult to compare SQL with variable width font.

    Please convert the optimize query page to use a monospace font for the queries.

  11. As a data privacy officer, database administrator, data analyst/researcher, or compliance officer, I would like the ability to anonymize sensitive data in the database by masking or replacing personally identifiable information (PII) or commercially sensitive data so that I can protect individuals' privacy and ensure compliance with data protection regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR.

  12. As a developer or database administrator,
    I want to scale and distribute my PostgreSQL databases,
    so that I can handle large-scale data processing and analytics workloads efficiently.

    The Citus extension offers the benefits of scalability, improved performance, fault tolerance, high availability, efficient data distribution, and seamless integration with PostgreSQL, enables the users to effectively manage and process large-scale data workloads.

  13. As a DBA I want to activate "so_reuseport" option so that PGBouncer can use multiple CPUs.
    In the context of a very high concurrent database using PGBouncer, the single process can reach 100% CPU usage. Having multiple PGBouncer processes in the same instance would distribute the load between several processes.

  16. As a developer/DBA
    I want to be able to issue the RECONNECT command to pgbouncer

  17. As a developer, I would like to simplify the process of building search and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) AI applications with PostgreSQL so that embedding and generation AI models are closer to the database, enabling me to create embeddings, retrieve LLM chat completions, generate responses, and reason over data directly within SQL queries.

  18. As a developer looking for an open-source alternative to MongoDB,
    I want to use FerretDB to translate MongoDB wire protocol queries to SQL,
    so that I can stop using proprietary MongoDB instances.

  19. As developer,
    I want to use the ip4r extension as the built-in IP address types in Postgres work okay for many applications, but are lacking when it comes to applications that heavily work with IPs, like ours. ip4r adds several IP types with expanded functionalities that enable us to perform far more efficient "IP in range" type lookups, as well as tracking IP ranges that don't fall neatly in CIDR boundaries, plus general performance improvements. Very useful for our malicious IP threat feed service, abuseipdb.com, as you can imagine.
