EDB

PostgreSQL 18's native OAuth 2.0 support is the result of a long game played across the community. EDB principal software engineer and major contributor Jacob Champion spent 4 years shepherding the patchset from first proof-of-concept through design, iteration, and review, working with more than a dozen community reviewers and contributors along the way. In his new blog, Jacob shares how the feature came together, why OAuth matters for large-scale authentication, and what comes next. This is a great inside look at how major Postgres features move from idea to release ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eaDPw6_x #EDBPostgresAI #PostgreSQL18 #PGCommunity #OpenSource #PG18 #DatabaseAdmin #TechInnovation

Day-one Kubernetes support for PostgreSQL 18 is here. In his latest blog, Gabriele Bartolini (CloudNativePG maintainer, PostgreSQL contributor, & EDB VP, Chief Architect of Kubernetes) shows you how to deploy a Postgres 18 cluster right now using CloudNativePG and the new minimal container image. He covers key features for cloud-native environments, including asynchronous I/O for major performance gains, built-in OAuth 2.0 authentication, and the new extension_control_path parameter for trusted, declarative extension management.

Cloud spend, AI performance, and carbon reporting now share the same boardroom agenda. Scaling infrastructure might fix performance in the moment, but it locks in higher costs and emissions long term. EDB put its own platform to the test and proved a different path. By using EDB Postgres AI to optimize instead of overprovision, we delivered: 🔹 77% lower infrastructure cost 🔹 60% lower carbon impact 🔹 Up to 6× performance in hardware-integrated deployments See the blueprint for enterprises facing rising cloud bills and ESG pressure in this piece by Matt Yonkovit, VP of Product Management at EDB, in Data Center Knowledge ➡️ https://lnkd.in/exWSVhya #EDBPostgresAI #Sustainability #NetZero #SustainableAI #ESG #responsibleAI
