Pigsty v4.4 adds Immich and JumpServer application templates, improves the Supabase and VIP experience, and begins standardizing the packages and filesystem layouts used to distribute PostgreSQL forks such as PolarDB and IvorySQL.
Pigsty v4.3 adds 50 PostgreSQL extensions, bringing the total to 510. It also adds Ubuntu 26.04 x86_64/arm64 support, refreshes Supabase, pgEdge, PolarDB, Grafana, MinIO, and a batch of infra packages.
Today’s models are smart enough. What they lack is a body: a deterministic runtime that is observable, controllable, and reversible. Pigsty is evolving from a PostgreSQL distribution into an Agent Runtime, giving DBA and Dev Agents the operational reach and context they need to enter real production environments.
Put an AI agent’s working directory, configuration, and memory on a PGFS mount, and you are effectively storing its state in PostgreSQL. That gives you not only a PITR “time machine,” but also a shared workspace and shared memory for multiple agents across multiple devices.
Over the last 30 days, pigsty.io served 1.44 million unique visitors, 18.11 million page views, and 1.1 TB of traffic. For a one-person open source project, the real asset here is not ad inventory. It is trust.
Same-day production support for PG 18.2 is the core message of Pigsty v4.1. In this cycle, very few vendors shipped day-zero readiness: AWS RDS, EDB, and Pigsty were among them.
A mediocre local who knows the terrain beats a genius parachuted into unknown territory. Intelligence without context is idle. An agent without a runtime is vapor.
Pigsty switched from AGPLv3 to Apache 2.0. Aren’t you worried about freeloaders? Freeloaders welcome — if you want to become the Debian of databases, a permissive license is table stakes.
Pigsty v3.3 pushes available extensions to 404, adds turnkey app deployment with app.yml, delivers Certbot integration for automated HTTPS, and launches a redesigned website.
Pigsty v3.0 ships 340 extensions across EL/Deb with full parity, adds pluggable kernels (Babelfish, IvorySQL, PolarDB) for MSSQL/Oracle compatibility, and delivers a local-first state-of-the-art RDS experience.
Pigsty v2.5 adds Ubuntu/Debian support (bullseye, bookworm, jammy, focal), new extensions including pointcloud and imgsmlr, and redesigned monitoring dashboards.
Pigsty v2.4 delivers PostgreSQL 16 GA support, RDS/PolarDB monitoring, Redis Sentinel HA, and a wave of new extensions including Apache AGE, zhparser, and pg_embedding.
Pigsty v2.2 delivers a complete monitoring dashboard overhaul built on Grafana 10, a 42-node production simulation sandbox, Pigsty’s own RPM repos, and UOS compatibility.
Pigsty v1.4 introduces a modular architecture with four independent modules, adds MatrixDB time-series data warehouse support, and delivers global CDN acceleration.
