PostgreSQL v2 How-Tos

This section provides detailed guides on managing PostgreSQL v2 clusters using the DCD.

Important:

• Effective September 28, 2026, PostgreSQL v1 functionality will be decomissioned. Use PostgreSQL v2 to create and manage clusters using the DCD or the API.
• Cluster creation using PostgreSQL v1 API is deprecated effective July 15, 2026.
• Existing PostgreSQL v1 clusters will be automatically migrated to the new PostgreSQL v2 infrastructure starting July 29, 2026. No user action is required and we will notify you before the migration. If you prefer to migrate earlier, see Manual migration.
