This release adds major new features since the 2.8.1 release. We deem it moderate priority for upgrading. This release includes these noteworthy features: * Hierarchical Continuous Aggregates (aka Continuous Aggregate on top of another Continuous Aggregate) * Improve `time_bucket_gapfill` function to allow specifying the timezone to bucket * Introduce fixed schedules for background jobs and the ability to check job errors. * Use `alter_data_node()` to change the data node configuration. This function introduces the option to configure the availability of the data node. This release also includes several bug fixes. **Features** * #4476 Batch rows on access node for distributed COPY * #4567 Exponentially backoff when out of background workers * #4650 Show warnings when not following best practices * #4664 Introduce fixed schedules for background jobs * #4668 Hierarchical Continuous Aggregates * #4670 Add timezone support to time_bucket_gapfill * #4678 Add interface for troubleshooting job failures * #4718 Add ability to merge chunks while compressing * #4786 Extend the now() optimization to also apply to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP * #4820 Support parameterized data node scans in joins * #4830 Add function to change configuration of a data nodes * #4966 Handle DML activity when datanode is not available * #4971 Add function to drop stale chunks on a datanode **Bugfixes** * #4663 Don't error when compression metadata is missing * #4673 Fix now() constification for VIEWs * #4681 Fix compression_chunk_size primary key * #4696 Report warning when enabling compression on hypertable * #4745 Fix FK constraint violation error while insert into hypertable which references partitioned table * #4756 Improve compression job IO performance * #4770 Continue compressing other chunks after an error * #4794 Fix degraded performance seen on timescaledb_internal.hypertable_local_size() function * #4807 Fix segmentation fault during INSERT into compressed hypertable * #4822 Fix missing segmentby compression option in CAGGs * #4823 Fix a crash that could occur when using nested user-defined functions with hypertables * #4840 Fix performance regressions in the copy code * #4860 Block multi-statement DDL command in one query * #4898 Fix cagg migration failure when trying to resume * #4904 Remove BitmapScan support in DecompressChunk * #4906 Fix a performance regression in the query planner by speeding up frozen chunk state checks * #4910 Fix a typo in process_compressed_data_out * #4918 Cagg migration orphans cagg policy * #4941 Restrict usage of the old format (pre 2.7) of continuous aggregates in PostgreSQL 15. * #4955 Fix cagg migration for hypertables using timestamp without timezone * #4968 Check for interrupts in gapfill main loop * #4988 Fix cagg migration crash when refreshing the newly created cagg * #5054 Fix segfault after second ANALYZE * #5086 Reset baserel cache on invalid hypertable cache **Thanks** * @byazici for reporting a problem with segmentby on compressed caggs * @jflambert for reporting a crash with nested user-defined functions. * @jvanns for reporting hypertable FK reference to vanilla PostgreSQL partitioned table doesn't seem to work * @kou for fixing a typo in process_compressed_data_out * @kyrias for reporting a crash when ANALYZE is executed on extended query protocol mode with extension loaded. * @tobiasdirksen for requesting Continuous aggregate on top of another continuous aggregate * @Xima for reporting a bug in Cagg migration * @xvaara for helping reproduce a bug with bitmap scans in transparent decompression
