PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system with over 35 years of active development that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance.

There is a wealth of information to be found describing how to install and use PostgreSQL through the official documentation. The open source community provides many helpful places to become familiar with PostgreSQL, discover how it works, and find career opportunities. Learn more on how to engage with the community.

2026-10-15 - PostgreSQL 19 Rc 1 Released!

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group announces that the 1st rc release of PostgreSQL 19 is now available for download. This release contains PostgreSQL 19 feature previews ahead of general availability, though some details of the release can change during the testing period.

You can find information about all of the PostgreSQL 19 features and changes in the release notes.

In the spirit of the open source PostgreSQL community, we strongly encourage you to test the new features of PostgreSQL 19 on your systems to help us eliminate bugs and other issues. While we do not advise you to run rc versions in production environments, we encourage you to find ways to run your typical application workloads against this rc release.

Your testing and feedback help the community ensure that PostgreSQL 19 upholds our standards of delivering a stable, reliable release of the world's most advanced open source relational database. Please read more about our testing process and how you can contribute.

PostgreSQL 14 will stop receiving fixes on November 12, 2026. If you are running PostgreSQL 14 in a production environment, we suggest that you make plans to upgrade to a newer, supported version of PostgreSQL. Please see our versioning policy for more information.
