https://PGConf.EU 2026 CFP closes Monday, June 1. Conference is October 20-23 in Valencia.
If you have spent the last year solving a real Postgres problem (not a textbook one), submit it. The European Postgres audience reads commit messages and asks better questions when you skip the marketing deck.

PgBouncer 1.25.2 shipped May 8 and patches CVE-2026-6664 — a pre-auth crash via a malformed SCRAM packet. Three other CVEs in the same release.
If PgBouncer is reachable from anything you don't fully trust, upgrade this week.

May 18: Supabase disables pg_graphql by default. May 30: the Data API flips to opt-out.
Existing projects unchanged — every public-schema grant is still an API endpoint.

PGConf.dev 2026 is next week: May 19–22 at SFU Vancouver.
Schedule was published recently. Even if you can't make it, watching what committers are talking about is the cleanest signal for what lands in PG19 and PG20.

pgBackRest has been archived since April 27. The rescue-or-fork rumour mill has not yet produced a primary-source statement.
The forward question for any production site: which backup tool's guarantees can a single maintainer realistically keep? Manifests, async, encryption, page-level incrementals — pick what you need, not what is familiar.https://lwn.net/Articles/1069951/
If you are rebuilding your backup posture, that is PGX work.

pg_lake makes Postgres talk to Apache Iceberg directly.
The interesting question isn't "can it" — it's what happens on concurrent INSERTs: manifest commits, snapshot isolation, object-store consistency. Each one is a place the design has to make real trade-offs.

pgvector 0.8.2 is out, fixing CVE-2026-3172 — a buffer overflow in the parallel HNSW build path. Backend crash or cross-relation data exposure in the worst case.
If you bumped pgvector independently of your server version (very common in RAG stacks), yesterday's PG minor release doesn't carry you. Check the installed pgvector explicitly.

PostgreSQL 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23 shipped May 14 — 11 security fixes plus 60+ bugs, headlined by CVE-2026-6473 (integer-wraparound RCE, CVSS 8.8).
Also: covert timing-channel fix in MD5 password comparison. scram-sha-256 unaffected. Yet another reason to retire md5 auth.

PostgreSQL 19 went into feature freeze on April 8. Beta 1 is expected this month; GA targeted for September.
Marquee items: SQL/PGQ, REPACK CONCURRENTLY, partition split/merge improvements.
The beta window is when regressions show up cheaply. Use it.

Percona has shipped OSS Transparent Data Encryption patches for PostgreSQL. Until now, production TDE has mostly meant a proprietary or EDB dependency.
Things to pin down before you adopt: where the cipher boundary sits (pages, WAL, TOAST, temp), key-rotation mechanics, throughput cost on bulk loads.
If TDE is on your compliance checklist but vendor lock-in isn't on the menu: https://pgexperts.com
