The [Pigsty](https://pigsty.io/) community is thrilled to announce Pigsty [v2.7.0](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/releases/tag/v2.7.0), which has [255](https://pigsty.io/docs/reference/extension/) unique extensions available, to the free PostgreSQL distribution and RDS alternative. We also have introduced some new docker-compose templates for [Odoo](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/tree/master/app/odoo), [Jupyter](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/tree/master/app/jupyter), [PolarDB](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/tree/master/app/polardb), and GA [Supabase](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/tree/master/app/supabase).
## About Pigsty Pigsty is a Battery-included, local-first PostgreSQL Distribution as a Free RDS alternative. **Links**: [Website](https://pigsty.io/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty) | [Demo](https://demo.pigsty.cc/) | [Blog](https://pigsty.io/blog) | [Install](https://pigsty.io/docs/setup/install/) | [Feature](https://pigsty.io/docs/about/feature/) **Images**: [Introduction](https://pigsty.io/img/pigsty/banner.en.jpg) | [Extensions](https://pigsty.io/img/pigsty/extension.png) | [Architecture](https://pigsty.io/img/pigsty/ha.png) | [Dashboards](https://pigsty.io/img/pigsty/dashboard.jpg) [Getting Started](https://pigsty.io/docs/setup/install/) with the latest [v2.7.0](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/releases/tag/v2.7.0) release with: `curl -L https://get.pigsty.cc/install | bash` ## Pigsty v2.7: Extension Overwhelming I wrote a popular article last month - [*Postgres is eating the database world*](https://pigsty.io/blog/pg/pg-eat-db-world/), explaining why extensions matter to the PostgreSQL ecosystem. Based on this idea, we've packaged **20** brand-new extensions in v2.7. With these extensions added, Pigsty offers **157** non-contrib extensions for [EL Distros](https://pigsty.io/docs/reference/extension/#rpm-extension) and **116** for [Debian/Ubuntu Distros](https://pigsty.io/docs/reference/extension/#deb-extension). Combined with **73** built-in [Contrib extensions](https://pigsty.io/docs/reference/extension/#contrib-extension), Pigsty now has a total of **255** unique extensions available, which takes PostgreSQL's versatility to a whole new level! > [Complete list of available > extensions](https://pigsty.io/docs/reference/extension/): > https://pigsty.io/docs/reference/extension/ ## v2.7.0 Release Note ### **Highlight** Adding numerous new extensions written in `rust` & `pgrx`: - [pg_search](https://github.com/paradedb/paradedb/tree/dev/pg_search) v0.7.0 : Full text search over SQL tables using the BM25 algorithm - [pg_lakehouse](https://github.com/paradedb/paradedb/tree/dev/pg_lakehouse) v0.7.0 : Query engine over object stores like S3 and table formats like Delta Lake - [pg_analytics](https://github.com/paradedb/pg_analytics) v0.6.1 : Accelerates analytical query processing inside Postgres - [pg_graphql](https://github.com/supabase/pg_graphql) v1.5.4 : GraphQL support to your PostgreSQL database. - [pg_jsonschema](https://github.com/supabase/pg_jsonschema) v0.3.1 : PostgreSQL extension providing JSON Schema validation - [wrappers](https://github.com/supabase/wrappers) v0.3.1 : Postgres Foreign Data Wrappers Collections by Supabase - [pgmq](https://github.com/tembo-io/pgmq) v1.5.2 : A lightweight message queue.
