Please be advised that the EDB Hosted Cloud Service has been deprecated. Support will still be available for current customers. However the related documentation topics removal work is in progress and will be removed shortly. We recommend affected users transition to alternative solutions as soon as possible. Further updates will be provided as the transition progresses.

Cloud Service's May 2024 release includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:

Type	Description
Enhancement	As part of this launch, we rebranded BigAnimal to the EDB Postgres AI Cloud Service. Our cloud service is part of a broader launch of EDB Postgres AI. EDB Postgres AI is an intelligent platform for transactional, analytical, and AI workloads managed across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Through the EDB Postgres AI Console, you can now discover new capabilities including: • Analytics: Postgres Lakehouse clusters are now available in the EDB Postgres AI Cloud Service, enabling 30X average faster analytical queries versus standard Postgres. This feature is initially limited to AWS-hosted customers only. • Hybrid data estate management: You can now have visibility into your self-managed Postgres databases, RDS Postgres databases, and EDB Postgres AI Cloud Service DB clusters from a “single pane of glass.” Using an installable agent, you can collect metadata from your self-managed DBs and view it in the EDB Postgres AI Console. With this release, we also added a new Health Status tab to the cluster view. This tab provides real-time insight into the topology and heath of the cluster, including the role of each node in the cluster, the status of each replication slot, and a selection of key health metrics.
Enhancement	BigAnimal now supports the pg_squeeze extension for clusters running on PostgreSQL, EDB Postgres Extended Server, and EDB Postgres Advanced Server. Learn more about how pg_squeeze can enhance disk space efficiency and improve query performance here.
