Products that do what Beta for Doltgres, the Postgres Version of Dolt does
You asked for it, we built it: the world's first version-controlled SQL database, Dolt, now has a Postgres-compatible version, Doltgres. We announced the limited alpha here on Hacker News 18 months ago, and today we're excited to announce the Beta release. Doltgres is free and open source, and you can download it from our GitHub repository here: https://github.com/dolthub/doltgresql/ More details on the Beta release in our announcement blog post: https://www.dolthub.com/blog/2025-04-16-doltgres-goes-beta/ If you've been waiting for the…

Why are SQL workbenches stuck in 2002? I work for the company behind Dolt, the first fully versioned SQL database. As a database company, we have often felt the pain of the lack of modern, web-native or browser-based SQL workbench products. We built a cool database UI for our other web products (DoltHub and Hosted Dolt) and we wanted the world to have it. The Dolt Workbench not only works with Dolt, which will unlock version control features, but it also works with any MySQL-compatible database, including MySQL and MariaDB. As far as we can tell, the Dolt Workbench is the only free, open…

I am just getting ready to release TeamPostgreSQL 1.05. You can check it out here: http://www.teampostgresql.com It is a web-based admin interface for PostgreSQL, with a lot of work put into making it a user-friendly and productive way to work with the database. Hopefully this makes it ideal for when different people need to access the database, including developers, testers, support staff, managers etc. This will be the first release after several months of beta testing and user feedback. Some feature highlights: * Pretty neat web interface (GWT powered AJAX GUI) * Comprehensive database…

My name is Elliott. For the last three years, I’ve been building a DevOps platform on the best-in-class open source platforms (Kubernetes, Elixir, PostgreSQL, Grafana, etc.). The goal is to give engineering teams access to a modern DevOps infrastructure without needing to have a full SRE/DevOps team dedicated. It’s also open source /fair source - all the source code is here → https://github.com/batteries-included/batteries-included I shipped a public beta today and would love to hear initial reactions, thoughts, and feedback. Here are details of the platform: *…

Hi HN! We just shipped the public beta of the hosted version of Mathesar, our open source “intuitive spreadsheet UI, full PostgreSQL power” project. Until now, using Mathesar meant installing and running it yourself. Now you can use Mathesar for free without having to maintain your own infrastructure at https://mathesar.cloud. Mathesar Cloud is run by the Mathesar maintainers through the 501(c)(3) nonprofit that already maintains the open source project. We’re committed to ALWAYS keeping Mathesar 100% open source (no open core), nonprofit, and treat self-hosting as a first-class…

Hello HN, I've just released a new migration tool for Go that mimics the functionality of Ruby on Rails migrations. It's designed to help Go developers manage database schema changes with ease. This allows you several benefits: - Write type-safe migrations - Auto down of migrations whenever it's possible - Easy backfill even with business logic because it's Go code - Painless integration with existing schema - sql.DB compatible and driver agnostic (it uses your driver) I have a pretty complete API to manage Postgres schema and I am working on the SQLite one (a little more complicated due to…

Hi HN – this is Peter from DBOS here with Qian (qianli_cs) and Jeremy (jedberg). We’re building an open-source, lightweight durable workflows library on top of Postgres. Ever since we first launched on HN last year, we’ve been blown away by the support, feedback, and response we’ve received from the community. We've realized durable workflows are critical for everything from business processes to AI automation to data pipelines, but most existing durable orchestration tools are either too heavy or too complicated for most applications. Instead, we're building something lightweight, simple,…

Hi HN, pgstream is an open source CLI tool and Go library for Postgres logical replication events. We have some bigger plans with it, but as of now its main "differentiator" is that it includes not only data changes but also DDL changes in the same ordered and consistent stream. We have developed this because in the Xata platform we handle automatic replication from Postgres to Elasticsearch/OpenSearch. Initially schema changes were problematic because they required us intercepting them at the API layer and then apply them to the search engine. But if the replication is slightly delayed…

Hi, the main motivation of this small personal project is the ability to build Postgres-backed python apps that remain fully pip-installable despite the dependency, while saving your users any need to setup Postgres if they don't have it. It also helps me, as a developer, to not have to remember how to set up postgres, which I find is one main barrier to using it for small stuff. It's a little project of mine that may be helpful to more people. I'm curious to hear your feedback (ps. I know about SQLite, but sometimes you want/need to build against postgres)
