Thousands of organizations use DevOps practices every day to deliver application changes. But what about the database? Excluding the database from your software delivery lifecycle risks application performance, data security and integrity. With Redgate Flyway Enterprise, you can solve this challenge with one solution built on best-in-class database comparison technology.

One of my favorite new PostgreSQL 18 features which hasn’t had much attention yet is tracking session-level IO stats. It’s going to be really helpful for more quickly finding problematic queries in real-time – kudos in particular to Bertrand Drouvot for the work on it!

With advances in AI and heightened compliance requirements, the way we handle data is changing rapidly. This makes a robust database change management process crucial for organizations who still need to ship value to market, while getting the right data into the hands of decision-makers faster. It’s a tough set of demands for any organization to grapple with as they modernize their data for the future.

IT and data teams in Financial Services must meet the more exacting demands for data integrity, compliance, performance, high availability and security that are expected in the sector. These demands require a dedicated, comprehensive, and scalable monitoring solution to help teams succeed in this high stakes environment.

I’m excited to announce a new capability in Redgate Monitor Enterprise: the Sensitive Action Log. As infrastructure becomes more complex, it’s more critical than ever to maintain control over how your monitoring environment is configured and accessed. Whether you’re responding to internal compliance policies, preparing for audits, or simply tightening operational security, it’s key to understand who did what, when.

I’m delighted to share that you can now run Redgate Monitor’s data repository on PostgreSQL with TimescaleDB, achieving dramatically improved performance and scalability at reduced cost.
