PlanetScale

Recently shipped a public Migration Assessment Tool, i8ge storage-dense Metal instances, and automatic dismissals of deploy request approvals.

SOC 2 and SOC 1 reports updated. Latest SOC 2 Type 2 + HIPAA and SOC 1 Type 2 reports (June 2025–June 2026) are available in the Trust Center.

New Postgres extensions and configuration. The roaringbitmap extension is now supported for compressed set operations. IP restrictions rules can carry descriptions, and the role field autocompletes active roles. Postgres roles can be created with the REPLICATION attribute via API, dashboard, CLI, and Terraform. Dedicated PgBouncers are manageable through the new planetscale_postgres_bouncer Terraform resource.

CLI gains database diagnostics and parameter management. pscale insights runs server-side analysis (top queries, errors, anomalies, schema recommendations). pscale inspect performs live checks over a read-only connection (table sizes, locks, bloat, unused indexes, etc.). Postgres branch parameters can be listed with pscale branch parameters list and changed via pscale branch resize --parameters. Existing Postgres roles now appear in the Connect button dropdown.

Query Insights expanded further. A new graph tab plots any available metric as a time series; sparklines are clickable. Vitess databases now track request size (bytes received). Vindex usage per query is shown. All Insights data is accessible through new public API endpoints for statistics, errors, anomalies, tags, and traffic budgets.

CLI improvements for automation. pscale role list and pscale password list support --name and --status filters. pscale branch query-patterns download exports CSV reports locally. The MCP server's planetscale_execute_read_query tool gained a use_replica parameter and Postgres RLS detection. pscale sql, pscale agent-guide, and structured auth commands enable reliable AI agent onboarding.

Infrastructure and Terraform. Read-only Vitess region cluster sizes and replicas per keyspace are configurable from the dashboard. VTTablet and MySQL settings are also configurable there. Terraform provider v1.5.0 added planetscale_postgres_bouncer and planetscale_postgres_redacted_branch_role (avoids plaintext passwords in state). Weekly Postgres reports now include egress metrics.
