We have so much good stuff this month that it’s hard to fit in a single blog post 🚢.
We’ve got some new Postgres extensions, GraphQL updates, changes to Edge Functions, and more!
pgvector is a popular PostgreSQL extension for storing embeddings and performing vector similarity search. It was one of the most requested extensions by the AI/ML community and is now available thanks to gregnr.
Greg wasted no time and took pgvector for a spin, he combined it with OpenAI to build Supabase Clippy, a next-generation doc search. The first implementation is a 1-week MVP and fully open source, so you can build on top of it.
We have released extensive reference docs for C# and Python, detailing every object and method. What are you going to build?
Views, Materialized Views, and Foreign Tables are three database objects that provide a powerful way to access and organize and transform data without duplication.
WebP is a modern image format that provides superior lossless and lossy compression for images on the web. We are enabling format conversion by default for anyone who has Image Transformations. You can opt out by including format: origin in the transformation parameters.
- Postgres Extension: Another powerful and time-tested extension, pg_repack, is added to Supabase. [PR]
- Auth: Multi-tab session support using the new browser BroadcastChannel API. If a user logs out on one tab, they will now be logged out on all tabs. [PR]
- Postgres: Superior speed with lz4 database compression. [PR]
- Postgres: Use ICU locales and collations for text attribute ordering in database queries. [PR]
- Docs: New guide on scheduling functions with pg_cron. [Guide]
- Edge Functions: You can now download source codes of deployed edge functions from the CLI. [Doc]

We teamed up with DigitalOcean to level up self-hosted Supabase. This guide shows how to host Supabase on DigitalOcean using Sendgrid, Packer, and Terraform. More collaborations coming soon!
We hit two big milestones: 45k stars and Supabase is one the top 200 most-popular repos on GitHub 💥
Massive thanks to the community for all the support 👁️⚡️👁️
