10 SEPTEMBER 2012: The PostgreSQL Global Development Group announces PostgreSQL 9.2, the latest release of the leader in open source databases. Since the beta release was announced in May, developers and vendors have praised it as a leap forward in performance, scalability and flexibility. Users are expected to switch to this version in record numbers.

-"PostgreSQL 9.2 will ship with native JSON support, covering indexes, replication and performance improvements, and many more features. We are eagerly awaiting this release and will make it available in Early Access as soon as it's released by the PostgreSQL community," said Ines Sombra, Lead Data Engineer, EngineYard. +"PostgreSQL 9.2 will ship with native JSON support, covering indexes, replication and performance improvements, and many more features.

Improved Performance and Scalability

-"With the release of PostgreSQL 9.2, the PostgreSQL Project has significantly advanced scalability and developer flexibility to provide our customers a highly performant database for their most demanding workloads," Beverly Quarles, Solutions Manager, Business Critical Solutions Marketing at HP, said. "We are especially happy with the addition of linear scalability to 64 cores, index-only scans and reductions in CPU power consumption." -

Organizations like the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and Heroku.com run applications on PostgreSQL, and HP has adopted it for their remote support software and to power their HP-UX/Itanium solutions.

Improvements in vertical scalability increase PostgreSQL's ability to efficiently utilize hardware resources on larger servers. Advances in lock management, write efficiency, index-only access and other low-level operations allow PostgreSQL to handle even larger-volume workloads. Numerically, this means:
