Is it possible to upgrade postgres server versions with this with no downtime?

@arsham_eslami Great question! Right now, PostgreSQL version upgrades inherently require a restart, even if it’s just a few seconds. For early access, we're focusing on lower environments (dev, test, staging) where this isn’t a major issue. Zero-downtime upgrades are on our roadmap, and we’re looking into strategies like replica-based migrations and hot-swapping instances.

@mghassen awesome! So does it mean I can spin up an upgraded version of PostgreSQL with my prod data for testing all my workloads before committing to moving everything over?

@arsham_eslami it's possible but not yet implemented. we have to create a workflow for that to import/export data to a new branch with a new compute version.
This can let you test your workload before pushing to production.
I like the use case, I'll add this to the near roadmap :-)

Amazing team! Love the product

10 branches feels limiting tbh. our feature teams alone would eat through that in a day. any plans for expanding this in paid tier?

@sofiarobss We're aware of the current limitations, but let me assure you that this is specific to the Closed Beta. Paid plans & Integrations will allow you to have unlimited access to branches, snapshots and more :)

nice tool for both pro and beginners

This is awesome, I hate waiting for dev environments to spin up. How many branches do you support and how do we integrate this into our existing environment?

@horsemcgee We support unlimited branches per database repository, with up to 10 branches available in the free access tier, all optimized for instant provisioning.
To bring in your data, you can easily export and restore a database dump.
For seamless integration, we provide APIs that work with your CI/CD pipelines, enabling automated environment creation and teardown.
Interesting! Does Guepard need a lot of storage for all the branches? And can it work with different types of databases at the same time?

@ahmed_arfaoui1 Guepard optimizes storage with copy-on-write and deduplication, so only data changes are stored efficiently.
As for database compatibility, we support multiple SQL and NoSQL providers, starting with PostgreSQL, and we’re actively expanding support for more in our roadmap.
