BigAnimal May 2024 release notes
BigAnimal's May 2024 release includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Enhancement | As part of this launch, we rebranded BigAnimal to the EDB Postgres AI Cloud Service. Our cloud service is part of a broader launch of EDB Postgres AI. EDB Postgres AI is an intelligent platform for transactional, analytical, and AI workloads managed across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Through the EDB Postgres AI Console, you can now discover new capabilities including: • Analytics: Postgres Lakehouse clusters are now available in the EDB Postgres AI Cloud Service, enabling 30X average faster analytical queries versus standard Postgres. This feature is initially limited to AWS-hosted customers only. • Hybrid data estate management: You can now have visibility into your self-managed Postgres databases, RDS Postgres databases, and EDB Postgres AI Cloud Service DB clusters from a “single pane of glass.” Using an installable agent, you can collect metadata from your self-managed DBs and view it in the EDB Postgres AI Console. With this release, we also added a new Health Status tab to the cluster view. This tab provides real-time insight into the topology and heath of the cluster, including the role of each node in the cluster, the status of each replication slot, and a selection of key health metrics. |
| Enhancement | BigAnimal now supports the pg_squeeze extension for clusters running on PostgreSQL, EDB Postgres Extended Server, and EDB Postgres Advanced Server. Learn more about how pg_squeeze can enhance disk space efficiency and improve query performance here. |
