We are excited to announce that PostgreSQL version 13 support is now available on IBM Cloud Hyper Protect DBaaS.

Now, you can provision Hyper Protect DBaaS for PostgreSQL service instances with PostgreSQL 13 in Dallas, Washington D.C., Sydney and Frankfurt. You can leverage PostgreSQL features like SQL stored procedures with this version.

PostgreSQL 13 is the default database version whether you provision in the IBM Cloud web UI or from the CLI. You can still choose to provision PostgreSQL 10 by specifying the database version parameter as 10, but you should be aware that this version will reach end-of-life soon.
