DigitalOcean Managed Databases now supports PostgreSQL 13, an advanced open-source relational database. Upgrades to version 13 include significant improvements in space savings and performance gains for indexes, faster response times for queries using aggregates or partitions, better query planning with enhanced statistics, parallelized vacuuming, and incremental sorting. DigitalOcean's Managed Databases allow users to offload complex administrative tasks, enabling them to focus on app development rather than database maintenance. The upgrade process is seamless, with no downtime, and supports Droplets with 100% dedicated vCPUs for mission-critical workloads.
