Highlight Features
Extension Exploding:
Pigsty now has unprecedented 333 available extensions for PostgreSQL. This includes 121 extension RPM packages and 133 DEB packages, surpassing the total number of extensions provided by the PGDG official repository (135 RPM/109 DEB).
Pigsty has ported unique PG extensions from the EL/DEB system to each other, achieving a great alignment of extension ecosystems between the two major distributions.
A crude list of the extension ecosystem is as follows:

Plugable Kernels:
Pigsty v3 allows you to replace the PostgreSQL kernel, currently supporting Babelfish (SQL Server compatible, with wire protocol emulation), IvorySQL (Oracle compatible), and RAC PolarDB for PostgreSQL.
Additionally, self-hosted Supabase is now available on Debian systems. You can emulate MSSQL (via WiltonDB), Oracle (via IvorySQL), Oracle RAC (via PolarDB), MongoDB (via FerretDB), and Firebase (via Supabase) in Pigsty
with production-grade PostgreSQL clusters featuring HA, IaC, PITR, and monitoring.
Pro Edition:
We now offer PGSTY Pro, a professional edition that provides value-added services on top of the open-source features.
The professional edition includes additional modules: MSSQL, Oracle, Mongo, K8S, Victoria, Kafka, etc., and offers broader support for PG major versions, operating systems, and chip architectures.
It provides offline installation packages customized for precise minor versions of all operating systems and support for legacy systems like EL7, Debian 11, and Ubuntu 20.04.
Major Changes
This Pigsty release updates the major version number from 2.x to 3.0, with several significant changes:
- Primary supported operating systems updated to: EL 8 / EL 9 / Debian 12 / Ubuntu 22.04
- EL7 / Debian 11 / Ubuntu 20.04 systems are now deprecated and no longer supported.
- Users needing to run on these systems should consider our subscription service.
- Default to online installation. Offline packages are no longer provided to resolve minor OS version compatibility issues.
- The
bootstrap
process will no longer prompt for downloading offline packages, but if/tmp/pkg.tgz
exists, it will still use the offline package automatically. - For offline installation, please create offline packages yourself or consider our subscription service.
- The
- Unified adjustment of upstream software repositories used by Pigsty, address changes, and GPG signing and verification for all packages.
- Standard repository:
https://repo.pigsty.io/{apt/yum}
- Domestic mirror:
https://repo.pigsty.cc/{apt/yum}
- Standard repository:
- API parameter changes and configuration template changes
- Configuration templates for EL and Debian systems are now consolidated, with differing parameters managed in the
roles/node_id/vars/
directory. - Configuration directory changes, all configuration file templates are now placed in the
conf
directory and categorized intodefault
,dbms
,demo
,build
.

Other New Features
- Epic enhancement of PG OLAP analysis capabilities: DuckDB 1.0.0, DuckDB FDW, and PG Lakehouse, Hydra have been ported to the Debian system.

reprepro
. - Provided sandbox environments for 1, 2, 3, 4, 43 nodes:
meta
,dual
,trio
,full
,prod
, and quick configuration templates for 7 major OS Distros. - Add PostgreSQL 17 and pgBouncer 1.23 metrics support in pg_exporter config, adding related dashboard panels.

- New parameter:
pg_parameters
, used to specify parameters inpostgresql.auto.conf
at the instance level, overriding cluster configurations for personalized settings on different instance members. - New parameter:
pg_files
, used to specify additional files to be written to the PostgreSQL data directory, to support license feature required by some kernel forks. - New parameter:
repo_extra_packages
, used to specify additional packages to download, to be used in conjunction withrepo_packages
, facilitating the specification of extension lists unique to OS versions. - Parameter renaming:
patroni_citus_db
renamed topg_primary_db
, used to specify the primary database in the cluster (used in Citus mode). - Parameter enhancement: Proxy server configurations in
proxy_env
will be written to the Docker Daemon to address internet access issues, and theconfigure -x
option will automatically write the proxy server configuration of the current environment. - Parameter enhancement: Allow using
path
item ininfra_portal
entries, to expose local dir as web service rather than proxy to another upstream. - Parameter enhancement: The
repo_url_packages
inrepo.pigsty.io
will automatically switch torepo.pigsty.cc
when the region is China, addressing internet access issues. Additionally, the downloaded file name can now be specified. - Parameter enhancement: The
extension
field inpg_databases.extensions
now supports both dictionary and extension name string modes. The dictionary mode offersversion
support, allowing the installation of specific extension versions. - Parameter enhancement: If the
repo_upstream
parameter is not explicitly overridden, it will extract the default value for the corresponding system fromrpm.yml
ordeb.yml
. - Parameter enhancement: If the
repo_packages
parameter is not explicitly overridden, it will extract the default value for the corresponding system fromrpm.yml
ordeb.yml
. - Parameter enhancement: If the
infra_packages
parameter is not explicitly overridden, it will extract the default value for the corresponding system fromrpm.yml
ordeb.yml
. - Parameter enhancement: If the
node_default_packages
parameter is not explicitly overridden, it will extract the default value for the corresponding system fromrpm.yml
ordeb.yml
. - Parameter enhancement: The extensions specified in
pg_packages
andpg_extensions
will now perform a lookup and translation from thepg_package_map
defined inrpm.yml
ordeb.yml
. - Parameter enhancement: Packages specified in
node_packages
andpg_extensions
will be upgraded to the latest version upon installation. The default value innode_packages
is now[openssh-server]
, helping to fix the OpenSSH CVE. - Parameter enhancement:
pg_dbsu_uid
will automatically adjust to26
(EL) or543
(Debian) based on the operating system type, avoiding manual adjustments. - pgBouncer Parameter update,
max_prepared_statements = 128
enabled prepared statement support in transaction pooling mode, and setserver_lifetime
to 600. - Patroni template parameter update, uniformly increase
max_worker_processes
+8 available backend processes, increasemax_wal_senders
