Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

Crunchy Data is proud to announce the release of pg_partman 5.2.4.

Highlights of the version 5.2 release:

 * Support UUIDv7 and other custom encoded methods of time-based partitioning. This allows a texted based partition column to be used as long as the value can also be encoded to some time-based value.
 * Removed superuser requirement for installation.
 * Improved maintenance performance.
 * Fixed issues with BIGINT data type when using LIST partitioning.

Further changes and bug fixes can be found in the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/pgpartman/pg_partman/blob/development/CHANGELOG.md).

About pg_partman:

pg_partman is an extension to create and manage both time-based and number-based table partition sets. As of version 5.0.0, only built-in, declarative partitioning is supported and the older trigger-based methods have been deprecated.

The declarative partitioning built into PostgreSQL provides the commands to create a partitioned table and its children, but it does not provide a means of automating that child table maintenance over time (Ex. adding new children, dropping old ones based on a retention policy). It also does not provide a means to easily turn an existing table into a partitioned table or vice versa. pg_partman aims to use the built-in declarative features that PostgreSQL provides, but build upon them to provide those missing features as well as many others to help make managing partitions easier.
