E.3. Release Notes for Tantor SE 17.7.0 #

Release date: 2025-12-23

E.3.1. Review #

Tantor SE is a Russian-made DBMS based on the updated and improved version of the PostgreSQL DBMS. Tantor SE 17.7.0 is based on PostgreSQL 17 and includes all the new features introduced in PostgreSQL 17, as well as changes included in the PostgreSQL 17.7 and previous releases of Tantor SE.

The list of changes in Tantor SE 17.7.0 compared to the previous release is listed below.

E.3.2. Additional Supplied Modules #

An extension auto_dump has been added. It helps you to capture a self-contained reproduction of problematic queries that run in production (e.g., from 1C).

E.3.3. Fixes for Additional Supplied Modules #

  • pgaudit:

    • Added an event labeling system. It provides selective event logging based on configurable rules, which allows you to more accurately control the audit of critical operations without having to log all database events.

    • Support for more than 170 event types has been implemented. It includes DML operations (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, TRUNCATE, COPY) and DDL operations (CREATE, ALTER, DROP for tables, indexes, views, functions, roles, and other objects).

    • Added support for 42 types of database objects to accurately identify tag targets, including tables, indexes, sequences, schemas, roles, functions, and extensions.

    • Implemented storage of labeling rules on disk using the pgaudit_marking.rules_conf_save() function.

    • Added the pgaudit.marking_rules_enabled setting, which allows you to enable or disable the event marking system.

    • Implemented separate logging of labeled events in CSV format with 18 columns, including timestamps, connection details, event and object types, request text, and execution status.

    • Rules management functions are provided: pgaudit_marking.set_rule(), pgaudit_marking.remove_rule(), pgaudit_marking.show_rules(), and so on to configure and monitor rules during execution.

  • pg_columnar — updating and adapting the extension to the new version Tantor SE.

  • transp_anon — fixed the error attribute X of type record has wrong type for an anonymized user when querying an anonymized table with deleted columns.

E.3.4. Operating System Support #

Added build support for OS ALT Linux p11.

E.3.5. Migration to version 17.7.0 #

To migrate from PostgreSQL or Tantor DB, first install the latest minor version and then perform a data offload/restore by applying pg_dumpall, or use the pg_upgrade utility.
