Aiven for PostgreSQL®: Version 18 is now the default for new services

We are excited to announce that PostgreSQL 18 is now the default version for all new Aiven for PostgreSQL® services.

What this means for you:

• New services: When creating a new Aiven for PostgreSQL service, the platform will now automatically select version 18 as the default.
• Existing services: Your currently running services on versions other than 18 remain unaffected and will continue to operate normally.

See our documentation for the Aiven for PostgreSQL service version lifecycle.
