Odyssey team is pleased to announce the release of Odyssey 1.3, a scalable multi-threaded connection pooler for PostgreSQL\GreenplumDB designed for the cloud.
In this release:
Support for protocol-level prepared statements in transaction pooling mode. You can enable pool_reserve_prepared_statement for a database. For client sessions issuing prepared statements Odyssey will automatically prepare those statements in database processes when necessary.
Standby lag polling. You can configure watchdog query for a database, and Odyssey will automatically prevent reading stale data.
A number of small bug fixes and improvements.
