To move to a newer major version, create a new cluster and copy your data with `pg_dump` and `pg_restore`. See [Import data](/postgres/import). +- **Minor versions and security patches:** New Postgres images include the latest minor release. We roll out new images during your cluster's [maintenance window](/postgres/maintenance-windows), but not on a fixed schedule. PgBouncer and PostGIS versions are pinned and change only when we update them. +- **Third-party extensions:** `pgvector` and `PostGIS` are supported, along with the bundled Postgres extensions marked as available on the [Extensions page](/postgres/extensions). To request another extension, [contact support](/about/support). +- **Alerting:** We email your organization when maintenance starts and finishes, but there are no alerts for metrics like CPU or storage. Use [metrics](/postgres/metrics) to watch your cluster. +- **Migration tools:** There's no automated migration from another database. Use `pg_dump` and `pg_restore`, as described in [Import data](/postgres/import). ## Regions
