Releasesby GlyphEnable or disable the tablet throttler per keyspace
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.

Control shard rollout concurrency per keyspace
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.
Run Vitess MoveTables from the pscale CLI
You can now run Vitess MoveTables workflows from pscale with pscale branch vtctld move-tables . Use it to copy tables between keyspaces, watch copy and traffic state, switch replica then primary traffic, and complete or cancel the workflow.

TIN: Postgres full-text search
We're introducing TIN, a full-featured, highly performant full-text search extension for Postgres. TIN supports full-text search that works like Postgres. Create an index with CREATE INDEX . Search it with WHERE column ==> 'terms...' . Rank results with BM25. Backups, transactions, and row insertions and updates work the way they should.
Lead: run full-text search queries in your CI
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 .
Per-shard sizing for Vitess
We've added the ability to adjust VTTablet sizes for individual shards in a Vitess keyspace. Enable per-shard sizing on the keyspace Shards tab, then set a cluster size on any shard. Shards you don't change will keep using the keyspace default.
Create and resize external Vitess keyspaces
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.
