You can now control how many development branches a database is allowed to have. The default is 100. You'll find the setting on the Settings page for your database. If you hit the limit, delete unused development branches or raise the cap before creating more. You can set the limit from 1 to 5,000. Vitess system limits Postgres branching
You can now import an existing MySQL database into PlanetScale Vitess with no downtime from the pscale CLI. Connect your database to a production branch as an external keyspace , then move its tables into PlanetScale with a Vitess MoveTables workflow.
We've added two Prometheus metrics for container restarts and deprecated planetscale_pods_container_restarts_total . The old counter had a bug. Its planetscale_restart_reason label described only the container's most recent termination, not the restarts being counted.
You can now attach an existing MySQL database as an external keyspace on a Vitess production branch. PlanetScale runs an external tablet against that source so you can query it through Vitess without importing the data first.
We've just released a second full-text search extension for Postgres, called Lead . This one's open source, so you can run it in your CI, dev, and staging environments, even fully offline. It has the same features as TIN, the full-featured, highly performant full-text search extension we announced yesterday .
You can now control how many shards in a Vitess keyspace PlanetScale updates concurrently during a configuration rollout. Keyspaces use a default concurrency of 1. Set a value from 1 to 32 to shorten rollouts for keyspaces with many shards while choosing how many shards change at the same time.
You can now turn a Vitess keyspace's tablet throttler on or off, and set the replication lag threshold. When the throttler is enabled, schema migrations and VReplication workflows pause while replication lag is above the threshold. The setting applies across all shards in the keyspace.
Neki, our sharded Postgres product, is now available in platform preview. Neki is horizontally sharded Postgres built to solve the problems that come with large scale. Every shard is real Postgres, and Neki handles routing, resharding, online schema changes, and version upgrades, all with a single connection string.
PlanetScale Managed has been issued an updated PCI Attestation of Compliance (AoC) and Report on Compliance (RoC), re-certifying our compliance with the PCI Data Security Standard v4.0.1 as a Level 1 Service Provider . Enterprise customers may obtain the latest copies of our PCI attestation and other security documentation by visiting our trust center .
You can now set an Authorization header on webhooks. Pass the full value, scheme included, like Bearer . PlanetScale sends it unchanged with every delivery. Use it when the receiving service needs a token. That includes webhook-triggered Cursor and Devin automations. Set it in the dashboard or with --authorization-header on the CLI. Read more
