  2. As a developer,
    I want to be able to perform efficient vector similarity and embeddings techniques directly in PostgreSQL, so that I can enable efficient handling of high-dimensional vector data within the PostgreSQL database for tasks like similarity search and machine learning.

    Pgvectorscale is an open-source PostgreSQL extension that builds on pgvector, enabling greater performance and scalability.

  5. As backend and DevOps engineer / SRM, I want to be able to visualize in Grafana metrics related to WAL files buildup due to lagging or missing replication slots.
    This will help us debug WAL bloat which might exhaust the disk space and better understand the cause.

    Mainly the metric filecount_size_bytes will be useful. Also any metric that would allow us to monitor per database service:
    1. Total WAL size.
    2. Size of WAL retained due to replication lag.
    3. Rate in which we consume the WAL for the replication over time (connector consumption rate).
    4. Rate in which we…

  6. As a DBA or developer,
    I want to be able to stop/start my services without losing replication slots
    so that I can resume my logical replication flows even after a power cycle.

    Similar recreation is currently done during nodes failover: https://aiven.io/blog/aiven-for-pg-recreates-logical-replication-slots

  7. As a database administrator or developer,
    I would like to be able to change the behavior of the MySQL Optimizer at the global level by changing the variable of the optimizerswitch with values such as "indexmergeintersection=off" or "preferordering_index=off",
    so that I would be able to optimize my query performance.

  8. Make it possible to change the default SSL mode.
    This way, by setting this value to "verify-full", we can make it so that anyone trying to connect to the database MUST have the CA certificate.

    Because currently, what's the point of the CA certificate if it is not mandatory?

  9. As DBA I want to have better logging using the PostgreSQL v15 logging feature to save the logs in JSON format so that I can integrate these logs in OpenSearch and provide better readability of these logs.

    This will provide 2 things:
    1 - Parse of the fields of the log entries -> give more capabilities searching the logs - easily filter some field like user/database/application name
    2 - Multi line queries in one log entry -> right now, multi line queries saves each line in a different log entry, which is very hard to filter a full query since…

  10. As a MySQL user
    I want to tune my service parameters according to best practises (in this case parameter joinbuffersize)
    so that I can make my application performance better as I cannot use indexes
    In addition, it might be useful to be able some other parameters mentioned here (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_join_buffer_size)

  13. As developer or DBA
    I want to be able to reproduce the behavior of Oracle Autonomous Transaction inside Postgres.
    so that I can create a different transaction that is not impacting the current one. Use case can be logging for example),
    In addition, this can be achieved using DBLinks but it requires to put the password inside a plSQL function. To avoid that, Aiven could have a new parameter allowing local connections without password.
