Dave Stokes Talks Open - Episode 14
summary
Postgres 16 goes into beta this Thursday with release notes freshly finalized and several concrete changes: vector operations now use explicit CMD intrinsics with handwritten x86_64 and ARM fallbacks, logical replication from a standby becomes possible, a new I/O view adds observability, and memory management sees an overhaul. JSON constructor functions land but the promised JSON_TABLE conversion misses the cut. Partitioning gets only minor tweaks. Client libraries gain libpq connection pooling so many read‑replica setups no longer require an external pooler.
