# Release notes for v0.11


This release is tracked in [this merge request](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/merge_requests/63).

## Major changes

### Victoria Metrics integration ([bbe4c8d](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/bbe4c8d))

Replaced standard Prometheus with Victoria Metrics for time-series data storage, delivering substantial performance and efficiency improvements:

- **Better compression**: Reduced storage footprint for long-term metric retention (from 2 GiB/day to >0.4 GiB/day/instance)
- **Lower memory usage**: More efficient resource utilization for large-scale deployments
- **Enhanced performance**: Faster query execution for dashboard rendering and analysis
- **Full compatibility**: Maintains complete Prometheus query language compatibility
- **Increased capacity**: Supports higher cardinality metrics without performance degradation

The migration is seamless with no changes required to existing Grafana dashboards or queries.

### Optimized query analysis

- Improved pg_stat_statements metric collection for more accurate and useful query performance data:

  - **Query-level aggregation**: Metrics now aggregate by queryid across all users and databases
  - **Simplified analysis**: Removed per-user ranking in favor of database-wide query patterns
  - **Consistent metrics**: Unified view of query performance regardless of executing user
  - **Better trending**: More reliable historical data for query performance analysis

- Added stats_reset metric which allows to check the last time statistics were reset

### New metrics ([6a76444](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/6a76444))

Added StatIO metric for indexes

### Made retention period 2 weeks instead of 8 days ([72c65cd](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/72c65cd))

### Bug Fixes

- Fixed bug of redundant/unused indexes metrics by adding a clause of granting pg_index to monitoring user ([e59fbbd](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/e59fbbd))
- Fixed incorrect display of blk_write_time on the 1st dashboard ([b958fa0](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/b958fa0), [444343e](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/444343e))
- Fixed a bug of not filtering top_k for aggregated table stats ([6a76444](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/6a76444))
- statement_timeout_seconds is now set to 15 seconds for all metrics ([6a76444](https://gitlab.com/postgres-ai/postgres_ai/-/commit/6a76444))

## Postgres version support

- Updated supported Postgres versions from 14-17 to 14-18

### Docker Compose improvements
- Added `BIND_HOST` environment variable for controlling port bindings on internal services
- Added `GRAFANA_BIND_HOST` environment variable for controlling Grafana port bindings
- Added `restart: unless-stopped` policy to pgwatch and Grafana services for automatic recovery
- Improved YAML formatting for better readability

### Port binding security
- All service ports now support configurable binding:
  - `${BIND_HOST:-}55432:5432` for target-db
  - `${BIND_HOST:-}55433:5432` for sink-postgres
  - `${BIND_HOST:-}59090:9090` for Prometheus
  - `${BIND_HOST:-}58080:8080` for pgwatch-postgres
  - `${BIND_HOST:-}58089:8089` and `${BIND_HOST:-}59091:9091` for pgwatch-prometheus
  - `${GRAFANA_BIND_HOST:-}3000:3000` for Grafana
  - `${BIND_HOST:-}55000:5000` for flask-backend
- Default behavior: bind to all interfaces (empty value)
- Recommended: set `BIND_HOST=127.0.0.1:` to restrict access to localhost

### AWS infrastructure
- Added complete Terraform infrastructure for AWS EC2 deployment
- Supports single-instance deployment with Docker Compose
- Includes VPC, Security Groups, EBS volumes, optional Elastic IP
- Comprehensive documentation and quick start guides

### Workload examples
- Added `items_updated_at_idx` index to single_index_analysis example

-   Full compatibility: All new metrics and existing monitoring features now support Postgres 18
-   Extended version range: Monitoring now supports Postgres versions 14-18
### 🎨 New dashboards
Dashboard 8 (Aggregated table analysis):
- Top tables by sizes (main (excluding TOAST), TOAST, size of indexes associated with the table)
- Top tables by tuple operation rates (inserts, deletes, HOT updates, non-HOT updates)
- Top tables by estimated bloat
- Top tables by shared blocks hit/read types
- Top tables by sequential/index live tuple fetches
Dashboard 9 (Single table analysis):
-  Detailed table size distribution breakdown
-  Estimated bloat analysis
-  Sequential/index live tuple fetch breakdown
-  I/O statistics section with shared block hits, reads, and hit ratio analysis
-  Enhanced tuple operations analysis
### 🚀 pg_index_pilot integration
Monitoring of the automated index management solution brought by our team:
-   New pg_index_pilot metric monitors index states, sizes, and optimization ratios
-   pg_index_pilot_config metric tracks rebuild thresholds and settings
### 🔍 Other new metrics added
Enhanced table monitoring capabilities:
-   Table size components: table_size_detailed metric
-   I/O performance tracking: pg_statio_all_tables metric
-   System catalog access: pg_class metric
### 🔧 Miscellaneous minor fixes and improvements
-   SQL query optimizations and compatibility enhancements
-   More consistent styling across the board
