The first beta version of PostgreSQL 14 is now available!

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group announces that the first beta release of PostgreSQL 14 is now available for download. This release contains previews of all features that will be available in the final release of PostgreSQL 14, though some details of the release could change before then.

In the spirit of the open source PostgreSQL community, we strongly encourage you to test the new features of PostgreSQL 14 in your systems to help us eliminate bugs or other issues that may exist. While we do not advise you to run PostgreSQL 14 Beta 1 in your production environments, we encourage you to find ways to run your typical application workloads against this beta release.

Your testing and feedback will help the community ensure that the PostgreSQL 14 release upholds our standards of delivering a stable, reliable release of the world's most advanced open source relational database. Please read more about our beta testing process and how you can contribute:

This release has significant improvements in transaction throughput for PostgreSQL systems that have large numbers of connections to the database, regardless if they are in an active or idle state.
