OpenAI GPT-6.1 Terra is now available on Unity Gateway
Databricks now supports the OpenAI GPT-6.1 Terra model via Foundation Model APIs on Unity Gateway.
Editing files in Unity Catalog volumes is now generally available
Users can now edit files stored in Unity Catalog volumes directly within the Databricks workspace file editor, eliminating the need for manual downloads and uploads.
Released pg\_pinecone
The pg_pinecone extension is now available, enabling native vector search within PostgreSQL. It allows users to perform vector searches using the local engine or offload indexing to Pinecone for larger datasets.
[Launched] Generally Available: Cost management and tagging for Claude models in Microsoft Foundry
Microsoft Foundry now provides integrated cost management and tagging for Claude models within Azure Cost Management. This update ensures Claude usage is tracked under the specific Foundry resource rather than as general SaaS spend.
Gemini Robotics ER 2 (Preview)
Gemini Robotics ER 2 is now available in preview. This vision-language model is designed for robotics applications, supporting spatial reasoning, agentic code execution, and task orchestration.
xAI's Grok 4.7 is generally available
xAI's Grok 4.7 model is now generally available for production use on global and US multi-region endpoints.

Service tokens include the last used IP, location, and network operator
PlanetScale service tokens and audit logs now include the IP address, location, and network operator information for improved visibility.
More Vitess operations in the CLI and API
PlanetScale has expanded its CLI and API to support additional Vitess operations, including Materialize and VDiff.
Vitess Materialize workflows in the dashboard
PlanetScale now displays Materialize workflows in the Vitess branch dashboard, allowing users to view stream states and replication lag.
Live connections for Neki
Users can now view, cancel, or terminate live connections to Neki routers via the dashboard or CLI, allowing for better management of active queries and sessions.
Postgres logical replication slots no longer need registration
We've removed the patroni.slots cluster parameter for Postgres logical replication. PlanetScale will now detect logical slots automatically, so you no longer need to add each slot name to your cluster configuration. Keep failover support enabled on your slots to preserve them during switchovers and failovers. Read more
Configure disk scaling for Vitess keyspaces
You can now control how disks in a Vitess keyspace are sized, from the dashboard, the API, or the pscale CLI. Let disks grow automatically up to a storage limit, turn growth off, or shrink disks with more capacity than you need.
Faster Heroku Postgres migrations with deferred index rebuilds
We've updated the Heroku Migrator so Heroku Postgres migrations are faster and cover more databases. The initial copy will now drop secondary indexes on PlanetScale and rebuild them after the data lands. This keeps a single bad index from restarting a multi-hour copy.
Read-only replicas for Neki
We've added read-only replicas for Neki. You can now attach extra instances that copy from the primary and serve reads, without using the replicas that take over during failover. This keeps long-running work like analytics, reports, and exports off the instances that handle live traffic and failover.
