The latest PlanetScale features and product launches.
We have added a new Google Cloud Platform (GCP) region (in beta). Now you can deploy databases on GCP in Seoul, South Korea (gcp-asia-northeast3)
For more information about limitations and supported regions, see our GCP documentation.
PlanetScale Insights now shows time-series metrics on a per-query pattern basis to help developers identify and troubleshoot problematic queries.
Read how the PlanetScale Engineering team used this feature to troubleshoot a query in our primary production database.
We’ve updated our status page to a new provider, enabling a streamlined incident workflow.
Historical availability events have been populated and the page is available at https://www.planetscalestatus.com.
We just released a new update to our workflow: safe migrations. Safe migrations protect your production database from direct DDL. As of today you can now disable this protection on any production branch.
Previously, protection from direct DDL was enabled by default on all production branches with no option to disable it. With this change, when you promote a branch to production, you will now see a toggle that asks if you want to enable safe migrations.
Read more about why we introduced safe migrations in our latest blog post, “An update to our workflow: safe migrations”.
We have added two new Google Cloud Platform (GCP) regions (in beta). Now you can deploy databases on GCP in Ashburn, Virginia (gcp-us-east4) and Montréal, Québec, Canada (gcp-northamerica-northeast1).
