# TimescaleDB Changelog

**Please note: When updating your database, you should connect using
`psql` with the `-X` flag to prevent any `.psqlrc` commands from
accidentally triggering the load of a previous DB version.**

## 2.0.0-rc1 (2020-10-06)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.7.4 release.
We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

This release adds the long-awaited support for distributed hypertables to
TimescaleDB. With 2.0, users can create distributed hypertables across
multiple instances of TimescaleDB, configured so that one instance serves
as an access node and multiple others as data nodes. All queries for a
distributed hypertable are issued to the access node, but inserted data
and queries are pushed down across data nodes for greater scale and
performance.

This release also adds support for user-defined actions allowing users to
define actions that are run by the TimescaleDB automation framework.

In addition to these major new features, the 2.0 branch introduces _breaking_ changes
to APIs and existing features, such as continuous aggregates. These changes are not
backwards compatible and might require changes to clients and/or scripts that rely on
the previous APIs. Please review our updated documentation and do proper testing to
ensure compatibility with your existing applications.

The noticeable breaking changes in APIs are:
- Redefined functions for policies
- A continuous aggregate is now created with `CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW`
  instead of `CREATE VIEW` and automated refreshing requires adding a policy
  via `add_continuous_aggregate_policy`
- Redesign of informational views, including new (and more general) views for
  information about policies and user-defined actions

This release candidate is upgradable, so if you are on a previous release (e.g., 1.7.4)
you can upgrade to the release candidate and later expect to be able to upgrade to the
final 2.0 release. However, please carefully consider your compatibility requirements
_before_ upgrading.

**Major Features**
* #1923 Add support for distributed hypertables
* #2006 Add support for user-defined actions
* #2435 Move enterprise features to community
* #2437 Update Timescale License

**Minor Features**

* #2376 Fix caggs width expression handling on int based hypertables
* #2416 Check insert privileges to create chunk
* #2428 Allow owner change of continuous aggregate
* #2436 Propagate grants in continuous aggregates

## 2.0.0-beta6 (2020-09-14)

**For beta releases**, upgrading from an earlier version of the
extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

This beta release includes breaking changes to APIs. The most 
notable changes since the beta-5 release are the following, which will 
be reflected in forthcoming documentation for the 2.0 release.

* Existing information views were reorganized. Retrieving information 
about sizes and statistics was moved to functions. New views were added 
to expose information, which was previously available only internally.
* New ability to create custom jobs was added.
* Continuous aggregate API was redesigned. Its policy creation is separated 
from the view creation.
* compress_chunk_policy and drop_chunk_policy were renamed to compression_policy and 
retention_policy.

## 1.7.0 (2020-04-16)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.6.1 release.
We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

This release adds the long-awaited support for PostgreSQL 12 to TimescaleDB.

This release also adds a new default behavior when querying continuous
aggregates that we call real-time aggregation. A query on a continuous
aggregate will now combine materialized data with recent data that has
yet to be materialized.

Note that only newly created continuous aggregates will have this
real-time query behavior, although it can be enabled on existing
continuous aggregates with a configuration setting as follows:

ALTER VIEW continuous_view_name SET (timescaledb.materialized_only=false);

This release also moves several data management lifecycle features
to the Community version of TimescaleDB (from Enterprise), including
data reordering and data retention policies.

**Major Features**
* #1456 Add support for PostgreSQL 12
* #1685 Add support for real-time aggregation on continuous aggregates

**Bugfixes**

* #1801 Include parallel leader in plan execution
* #1808 Fix ts_hypertable_get_all for compressed tables
* #1828 Ignore dropped chunks in compressed_chunk_stats

**Licensing changes**
* Reorder and policies around reorder and drop chunks are now
  accessible to community users, not just enterprise
* Gapfill functionality no longer warns about expired license

**Thanks**

## 1.6.0 (2020-01-14)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.5.1 release.
We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

The major new feature in this release allows users to keep the aggregated
data in a continuous aggregate while dropping the raw data with drop_chunks.
This allows users to save storage by keeping only the aggregates.

The semantics of the refresh_lag parameter for continuous aggregates has
been changed to be relative to the current timestamp instead of the maximum
value in the table. This change requires that an integer_now func be set on
hypertables with integer-based time columns to use continuous aggregates on
this table.

We added a timescaledb.ignore_invalidation_older_than parameter for continuous
aggregates. This parameter accept a time-interval (e.g. 1 month). If set,
it limits the amount of time for which to process invalidation. Thus, if
timescaledb.ignore_invalidation_older_than = '1 month', then any modifications
for data older than 1 month from the current timestamp at modification time may
not cause continuous aggregate to be updated. This limits the amount of work
that a backfill can trigger. By default, all invalidations are processed.

**Major Features**
* #1589 Allow drop_chunks while keeping continuous aggregates

**Minor Features**
* #1568 Add ignore_invalidation_older_than option to continuous aggs
* #1575 Reorder group-by clause for continuous aggregates
* #1592 Improve continuous agg user messages

**Bugfixes**
* #1565 Fix partial select query for continuous aggregate
* #1591 Fix locf treat_null_as_missing option
* #1594 Fix error in compression constraint check
* #1603 Add join info to compressed chunk
* #1606 Fix constify params during runtime exclusion
* #1607 Delete compression policy when drop hypertable

* @acarrera42 for reporting an issue with constify params during runtime exclusion
* @ChristopherZellermann for reporting an issue with the compression constraint check
* @SimonDelamare for reporting an issue with joining hypertables with compression

## 2.0.0-beta4 (2019-12-19)

**For beta releases**, upgrading from an earlier version of the
extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

This release includes user experience improvements for managing data
nodes, more efficient statistics collection for distributed
hypertables, and miscellaneous fixes and improvements.

## 1.5.1 (2019-11-12)

This maintenance release contains bugfixes since the 1.5.0 release. We deem it low
priority for upgrading.

In particular the fixes contained in this maintenance release address potential
segfaults and no other security vulnerabilities. The bugfixes are related to bloom
indexes and updates from previous versions.

**Bugfixes**
* #1523 Fix bad SQL updates from previous updates
* #1526 Fix hypertable model
* #1530 Set active snapshots in multi-xact index create

**Thanks**
* @84660320 for reporting an issue with bloom indexes
* @gumshoes @perhamm @jermudgeon @gmisagm for reporting the issue with updates

## 2.0.0-beta3 (2019-11-05)

**For beta releases**, upgrading from an earlier version of the
extension (including previous beta releases) is not supported.

This release improves performance for queries executed on distributed
hypertables, fixes minor issues and blocks a number of SQL API
functions, which are not supported on distributed hypertables. It also
adds information about distributed databases in the telemetry.

## 2.0.0-beta2 (2019-10-22)

This release introduces *distributed hypertables*, a major new
feature that allows hypertables to scale out across multiple nodes for
increased performance and fault tolerance. Please review the
documentation to learn how to configure and use distributed
hypertables and what current limitations are.

## 1.5.0 (2019-10-31)

This release adds major new features and bugfixes since the 1.4.2 release.
We deem it moderate priority for upgrading.

This release adds compression as a major new feature.
Multiple type-specific compression options are available in this release
(including DeltaDelta with run-length-encoding for integers and
timestamps; Gorilla compression for floats; dictionary-based compression
for any data type, but specifically for low-cardinality datasets;
and other LZ-based techniques). Individual columns can be compressed with
type-specific compression algorithms as Postgres' native row-based format
are rolled up into columnar-like arrays on a per chunk basis.
The query planner then handles transparent decompression for compressed
chunks at execution time.

This release also adds support for basic data tiering by supporting
the migration of chunks between tablespaces, as well as support for
parallel query coordination to the ChunkAppend node.
Previously ChunkAppend would rely on parallel coordination in the
underlying scans for parallel plans.

More information can be found on [our blog](https://blog.timescale.com/blog/building-columnar-compression-in-a-row-oriented-database)
or in this [tutorial](https://docs.timescale.com/latest/tutorials/compression-tutorial)

**For this release only**, you will need to restart the database before running
`ALTER EXTENSION`

**Major Features**
* #1393 Moving chunks between different tablespaces
* #1433 Make ChunkAppend parallel aware
* #1434 Introducing native compression, multiple compression algorithms, and hybrid row/columnar projections

**Minor Features**
* #1471 Allow setting reloptions on chunks
* #1479 Add next_start option to alter_job_schedule
* #1481 Add last_successful_finish to bgw_job_stats

was initially limited to one continuous aggregate per hypertable.
With this release, we remove this restriction and allow multiple
continuous aggregates per hypertable.

This release adds a new custom node ChunkAppend that can perform
execution time constraint exclusion and is also used for ordered
append. Ordered append no longer requires a LIMIT clause and now
supports space partitioning and ordering by time_bucket.

## 1.3.0 (2019-05-06)

This release contains major new functionality that we call continuous aggregates.

Aggregate queries which touch large swathes of time-series data can take a long
time to compute because the system needs to scan large amounts of data on every
query execution. Our continuous aggregates continuously calculate the
results of a query in the background and materialize the results. Queries to the
continuous aggregate view are then significantly faster as they do not need to
touch the raw data in the hypertable, instead using the pre-computed aggregates
in the view.

Continuous aggregates are somewhat similar to PostgreSQL materialized
views, but unlike a materialized view, continuous
aggregates do not need to be refreshed manually; the view will be refreshed
automatically in the background as new data is added, or old data is
modified. Additionally, it does not need to re-calculate all of the data on
every refresh. Only new and/or invalidated data will be calculated.  Since this
re-aggregation is automatic, it doesn’t add any maintenance burden to your
database.

Our continuous aggregate approach supports high-ingest rates by avoiding the
high-write amplification associated with trigger-based approaches. Instead,
we use invalidation techniques to track what data has changed, and then correct
the materialized aggregate the next time that the automated process executes.

## 1.2.0 (2019-01-29)

**This is our first release to include Timescale-Licensed features, in addition to new Apache-2 capabilities.**

We are excited to be introducing new time-series analytical functions, advanced data lifecycle management capabilities, and improved performance.
- **Time-series analytical functions**: Users can now use our `time_bucket_gapfill` function, to write complex gapfilling, last object carried forward, and interpolation queries.
- **Advanced data lifecycle management**: We are introducing scheduled policies, which use our background worker framework to manage time-series data. In this release, we support scheduled `drop_chunks` and `reorder`.
- **Improved performance**: We added support for ordered appends, which optimize a large range of queries - particularly those that are ordered by time and contain a LIMIT clause. Please note that ordered appends do not support ordering by `time_bucket` at this time.
- **Postgres 11 Support**: We added beta support for PG11 in 1.1.0. We're happy to announce that our PG11 support is now out of beta, and fully supported.

This release adds code under a new license, LICENSE_TIMESCALE. This code can be found in `tsl`.

**For this release only**, you will need to restart the database before running
`ALTER EXTENSION`

* Other bug and stability fixes

**Notable commits**

* [f99b540] Avoid loading twice in parallel workers and load only from $libdir

## 1.1.0 (2018-12-13)

Our 1.1 release introduces beta support for PG 11, as well as several performance optimizations aimed at improving chunk exclusion for read queries. We are also packaging our new timescale-tune tool (currently in beta) with our Debian and Linux releases. If you encounter any issues with our beta features, please file a Github issue.

**Potential breaking changes**
- In addition to optimizing first() / last() to utilize indices for non-group-by queries, we adjusted its sorting behavior to match that of PostgreSQL’s max() and min() functions. Previously, if the column being sorted had NULL values, a NULL would be returned. First() and last() now instead ignore NULL values.

## 0.12.0 (2018-09-10)

**High-level changes**

*Scheduler framework:* This release introduces a background job framework and scheduler. Each database running within a PostgreSQL instance has a scheduler that schedules recurring jobs from a new jobs table while maintaining statistics that inform the scheduler's policy. Future releases will leverage this scheduler framework for more automated management of data retention, archiving, analytics, and the like.

*Telemetry:* Using this new scheduler framework, TimescaleDB databases now send anonymized usage information to a telemetry server via HTTPS, as well as perform version checking to notify users if a newer version is available. For transparency, a new `get_telemetry_report` function details the exact JSON that is sent, and users may also opt out of this telemetry and version check.

*Continued hardening:* This release addresses several issues around more robust backup and recovery, handling large numbers of chunks, and additional test coverage.

**Notable commits**

* [efab2aa] Fix net lib functionality on Windows and improve error handling
* [71589c4] Fix issues when OpenSSL is not available
* [a43cd04] Call the main telemetry function inside BGW executor

**Thanks**

@EvanCarroll for updates to the bootstrap script to check for cmake


## 0.11.0 (2018-08-08)

**High-level changes**

* **Adaptive chunking**: This feature, currently in beta, allows the database to automatically adapt a chunk's time interval, so that users do not need to manually set (and possibly manually change) this interval size. In this release, users can specify either a target chunk data size (in terms of MB or GB), and the chunk's time intervals will be automatically adapted. Alternatively, users can ask the database to just estimate a target size itself based on the platform's available memory and other parameters, and the system will adapt accordingly. This type of automation can simplify initial database test and operations. This feature is default off. Note: The default time interval for non-adaptive chunking has also been changed from 1 month to 1 week.
* **Continued hardening**: This release addresses a number of less frequently used schema modifications, functions, or constraints. Unsupported functions are safely blocked, while we have added support for a number of new types of table alterations. This release also adds additional test coverage.
* Support for additional types of time columns, if they are binary compatible (thanks @fvannee!).

* Smarter use of HashAggregate by teaching the planner to better estimate the number of output rows when using time-based grouping.
* New convenience function for getting the approximate number of rows in a hypertable (`hypertable_approximate_row_count`).
* Fixed support for installing extension into non-`public` schemas
* Other bug fixes and refactorings.

## 0.9.0 (2018-03-05)

**High-level changes**
* Support for multiple extension versions on different databases in the

more spurious errors in the log as the extension is being
updated, and new versions no longer require a restart of the database.
* Streamlined update process for smaller binary/package sizes
* Significant refactoring to simplify and improve codebase, including
improvements to error handling, security/permissions, and more
* Corrections to edge-case scenarios involving dropping schemas,
hypertables, dimensions, and more
* Correctness improvements through propagating reloptions from main
table to chunk tables and blocking `ONLY` commands that try to alter
hypertables (i.e., changes should be applied to chunks as well)

non-empty tables to be turned into hypertables without separate
creation & insertion steps. Note, this option may take a while if the
original table has lots of data

## 0.1.0 (2017-06-28)

**IMPORTANT NOTE**

Starting with this release, TimescaleDB will now
support upgrading between extension versions using the typical
`ALTER EXTENSION` command, unless otherwise noted in future release notes. This
important step should make it easier to test TimescaleDB and be able
to get the latest benefits from new versions of TimescaleDB. If you
were previously using a version with the `-beta` tag, you will need
to `DROP` any databases currently using TimescaleDB and re-create them
in order to upgrade to this new version. To backup and migrate data,
use `pg_dump` to save the table schemas and `COPY` to write hypertable
data to CSV for re-importing after upgrading is complete. We describe
a similar process on [our docs](http://docs.timescale.com/getting-started/setup/migrate-from-postgresql#different-db).
