This release makes major-version upgrades less disruptive, accelerating upgrade times and reducing the time required to reach expected performance after an upgrade completes. Developers also benefit from PostgreSQL 18 features, including virtual generated columns that compute values at query time, and the database-friendly `uuidv7()` function that provides better indexing and read performance for UUIDs. PostgreSQL 18 makes it easier to integrate with single-sign on (SSO) systems with support for OAuth 2.0 authentication. - +"The efforts of the global open source community shape every PostgreSQL release and help deliver features that meet users where their data resides," said . "PostgreSQL 18 builds on the project's long, rich history of delivering a reliable and robust data management experience, while continuing to expand the workloads it can support." PostgreSQL, an innovative data management system known for its reliability, robustness, and extensibility, benefits from nearly 30 years of open source -- 2.39.5
