EDB Postgres for Kubernetes 1.9.0 release notes v1
We are in the process of migrating the documentation from the previous EDB Postgres for Kubernetes name to the new EDB CloudNativePG Cluster name. You may see references to both names in this documentation.
Released: 28 Sep 2021
This release of EDB Postgres for Kubernetes includes the following:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Feature | Add Kubernetes 1.22 to the list of supported Kubernetes distributions, and remove 1.16. |
| Feature | Introduce support for the --restore-target-wal option in pg_rewind, in order to fetch WAL files from the backup archive, if necessary (available only with PostgreSQL/EPAS 13+). |
| Feature | Version 1.9.0 is not available on OpenShift due to delays with the release process and the subsequent release of version 1.9.1. |
| Feature | Expose a default metric for the Prometheus exporter that estimates the number of pages in the pg_catalog.pg_largeobject table in each database. |
| Feature | Enhance the performance of WAL archiving and fetching, through local in-memory cache. |
| Bug fix | Explicitly set the postgres user when invoking pg_isready - required by restricted SCC in OpenShift. |
| Bug fix | Properly update the FirstRecoverabilityPoint in the status. |
| Bug fix | Set archive_mode = always on the designated primary if backup is requested. |
