  1. As a database admin or a developer,
    I would like the explain parameterized queries are enabled and the user agent's search path is configured to include all schemas in the Datadog agent configuration,
    so that I would be able to fully utilize the Explain Insights module of the Datadog Database Monitoring feature with my PostgreSQL databases.

  2. As a Database Administrator,

    I want to have the ability to configure the PostgreSQL parameters log_parameter_max_length and log_parameter_max_length_on_error within Aiven's platform,

    so that I can prevent sensitive data from being exposed in database logs, especially during the logging of slow queries.

    In addition, enabling this configuration is crucial for maintaining compliance with data protection regulations and upholding the privacy standards expected.

  5. As Database Engineer
    I want to be able to restore to a time before a major in-place upgrade
    so that I can restore data in certain tables for our customers.
    In addition, we communicate to customers that we can restore data back 30 days and an in-place upgrade does not allow that. Doing a fork and an upgrade causes additional downtime and complicates automation that makes use of naming standards.

  6. As a database administrator or developer, I would like multi-region standby capability for my PostgreSQL and MySQL databases so that I can ensure high-availability and business continuity by maintaining standbys across different regions, enabling automatic promotion in the event of a region-wide outage.

  7. Based on a similar mechanism with aivendbmigrate I would like to have major release upgrade mechanism based on logical replication.

    Steps:

    1. create an empty target instance with new major release
    2. create a full logical replication setup (like aivendbmigrate does) 2.1. inform users about limitations (lobs, schema changes during that period etc.) 2.2. inform users about testing and rollback capabilities
    3. perform the usual migrate thing with transferring everything and switch to a CDC state until next steps are defined
    4. provide specific cutover scenarios 4.1. DNS switch if possible? 4.2. some pgbouncer magic to prevent forced reconnections of…

  8. DuckDB has just launched a new pg_duckdb extension and I want to use it in my PostgreSQL database to improve the performance in analytics.

    pg_duckdb is a Postgres extension that embeds DuckDB's columnar-vectorized analytics engine and features into Postgres.

  9. As a Software Engineer or DBA, I want to be able to enforce schemas on JSON/JSONB fields in a convenient manner, so that I can ensure bad data doesn't getting written to my database. https://github.com/supabase/pg_jsonschema seems to be the most popular extension for doing this.

  12. 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.

  13. 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.

  14. As database administrator
    I want to be able to allocate shards/nodes to Aiven for Valkey
    so that I can:
    - Distributes the dataset across multiple nodes, enabling horizontal scalibility.
    - Implement a more cost-effective solution compared to scaling up a single server.
    - Ensure redundancy and replication across multiple nodes, so that if one node fails, the system can continue to operate with minimal impact.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  20. As a DevOps Engineer,
    I want to be able to do in-place major version upgrade for Postgresql while maintaining ability to rollback to previous version in case there's apps error with the minimal data loss.
    So that I can reduce effort for major version upgrade, which currently we need to fork and do logical replication (with other necessary stuff to do) for keeping the data in-sync with the master if we want the ability to rollback.
    In addition, we have done the fork and logical replication with ability to rollback to old version while keeping the data in-sync between the…
