pg_ivm 1.0 released!

pg_ivm v1.0 was officially released!

pg_ivm is an extension module that provides Incremental View Maintenance (IVM) feature, which is a way to make materialized views up-to-date in which only incremental changes are computed and applied on views rather than recomputing.

I have already explained pg_ivm in the previous post, but it was in alpha release stage at that time. The official v1.0 was released after a few bug fixes and code cleaning.

Also, RPM packages for pg_ivm are now available from PostgreSQL yum repository. So, you can also install pg_ivm for PostgreSQL 14 using yum or dnf intead of building from the source code, like:

$ sudo yum install pg_ivm_14

See the official instruction for details.

We would appreciate it if you could try pg_ivm v1.0 and give us any feedback!
