Release 3.3

The Redrock Postgres development team is pleased to announce Redrock Postgres version 3.3, which is based on the PostgreSQL 17 community release.

Redrock Postgres is an enterprise-grade distribution of PostgreSQL, focusing on the quality and stability of database, and is fully compatible with all features and capabilities of the PostgreSQL community edition.

For more information, please see the website.

Feature overview:

  • No table bloat issue, more efficient updates on table rows, and elimination of index write amplification;
  • No need for regular heavyweight vacuum of tables and indexes;
  • Transaction IDs in 64-bit format, eliminating the need for regular full freezing of whole cluster data;
  • Logging records for rolling back modified data and transactions, making transaction status maintenance and management simpler and more stable.

Changes:

  • Reverted the change to the system type xid, which remains 32-bit in length (taking the lower bits of the internal transaction ID) to maintain strict compatibility with the community edition;
  • Improved query performance when data checksums are enabled;
  • This release no longer supports Debian GNU/Linux 8 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, as these versions have long passed their EOL maintenance period;
  • Fixed several identified related issues.
