0.16.0 does not contain breaking changes to existing indexes. However, several settings around index creation have been changed. Please read the changelog carefully.

​
New Features 🎉

  • CREATE INDEX/REINDEX can now leverage Postgres parallel workers, which significantly improves index build times. To fully take advantage of parallel index builds, some Postgres settings may require tuning. Additionally, the old paradedb.create_index_* and paradedb.statement_* settings have been removed in favor of the built-in postgresql.conf settings.
  • Indexing expressions is a new beta feature for advanced users.
  • paradedb.snippet now works for JSON.

​
Stability Improvements 💪

  • Fixed an issue where BM25 scores could be lost in JOIN queries.

​
Performance Improvements 🚀

  • Optimized the insert code path, leading to 2X write throughput over single-row inserts/updates.
  • Improved query pushdown to use the BM25 index when we can, even if @@@ is not present in the query.
The full changelog is available on the GitHub Release.
