Atlas v0.31: pgvector support for your LLM-based apps, custom schema rules, and more

We're excited to share the latest updates and improvements with you.

In this release you will find:

• Custom rules - You can now define custom rules for your database schema and have Atlas enforce them for you during CI.
• pgvector support: We've added native support for managing schemas for projects that use the theLLM-based pgvector extension - especially useful if you are building LLM-based applications using PostgreSQL.
• Drift detection - It is now simpler to set up drift detection checks to alert you when a target database isn’t in the state it’s supposed to be in.
• Multi-project ER Diagrams - you can now create composite ER diagrams that stitch schema objects from multiple Atlas projects. And more!

Here is a sneak peek at two of the updates:

Schema drift, can lead to significant issues such as application errors, deployment failures, and even service outages.

In this release, we've simplified the process of setting up drift checks using the Atlas Cloud UI.

If you already use Atlas to run migrations, enable drift detection to stay on top of any manual schema changes that may cause a painful outage.

Multi-project ER Diagrams

Many teams using Atlas adopt microservices-oriented architectures to build their applications. This approach allows them to develop, scale, and deploy services independently, but it also introduces a unique challenge: database schemas are often spread across multiple logical (and sometimes physical) databases.

To help teams overcome this challenge, we are introducing composite, multi-project ER diagrams in Atlas Cloud. Using this feature, teams can create diagrams that are composed of database objects from multiple Atlas projects.
