Custom environment variables for Vercel integrations

I have multiple Postgres clients for multiple Postgres databases in my Vercel service. I can only use one database with Neon preview branches because the names are always the same. Could y'all let us customize the environment variable names?

Intermittently throwing error when trying to acquire lock

Some times despite no existing lock acquired against a particular column, it throws error. Its very random and very frustrating. We are using select for update query with noupdate option. I have also tried disabling the Scale to zero setting. Please help this is very annoying.

Bug: CSV export doesn't stringify JSON columns

Ran into this bug when exporting data from a table that uses JSONB columns. When I export to CSV, it's rendered in the file as "[object Object]" instead of being properly JSON.stringify-ed, so the export is a lot less useful. When I export to JSON, it does properly include the data from the JSONB columns.

Are the neon-vercel integrations incomplete?

wo uses cases where the neon console says to goto the vercel integration, upon which, there is no capability. 1. Add projects. "To create a new project, use the Neon Postgres integration in Vercel" - but then that doesn't exist in vercel or I can't find it. 2. Manage users "To manage organization members, use the Neon Postgres integration in Vercel." - but then that doesn't exist in vercel. ...

Feature Request: OpenTelemetry export to third party providers

Hey all, Would be wonderful if we could get the telemetry we can see in the web ui on neon (and more if available) exported to a nominated OTel compatible provider. We use honeycomb but it would be pretty trivial I'd imagine to genercise it so most if not all OTel compatible metrics ingestion services could "just work"....

Region Request - México (mx-central-1)

Hey team! AWS recently launched a new region in MĂ©xico –with very competitive pricing btw–. I’m working on a project that needs a serverless database deployed locally in MĂ©xico and I’d have loved to use Neon for this. Any plans to support this region soon?

Feature request - a day-by-day storage usage chart

It would be awesome if we could have a day-by-day storage usage chart to follow the daily usage, then we know how is it reducing/increasing. Below is a sample chart from MotherDuck...

Feature request – support pgvectorscale

It would be awesome if you could look into adding pgvectorscale as a supported extension. Its StreamingDiskANN index is designed to stay mostly on disk and uses binary compression, so in theory it should need far less RAM than pgvector’s HNSW and make scale-to-zero cold starts and smaller compute tiers a bit friendlier for sizeable vector workloads. I totally get that this is a young extension and that the local-NVMe benchmark numbers out there likely won’t map 1-to-1 onto Neon’s remote-storage setup, but seems like it could improve pgvector workloads in both performance and RAM-related cost, which matters a lot on Neon. I'm sure there could be complexities/factors that I am missing that y'all have considered though, so lmk if so....

Project grouping within an organization (i.e. Project folders)

Hi, We will soon move to a tenant per project structure as recommended by Neon itself. However, it occured to me that since we as an organization are managing multiple products, the list of projects within our organization will be a mix of projects relating to one product and projects belonging to other products. Which is why I would like to request a feature like Project folders or a similar grouping ability that will allow us to group the projects based on the product that they belong to....

Question / Feature Request : Scale to zero scheduling

I'm fairly new to Neon and have been using it as apart of a demo on the free tier. I've been testing pg_cron extension (granted scale to zero obliterates it) and wondered if it would be possible to set up timeframes where scale to zero would be enabled. It would be good to be able to keep scale to zero but have it automatically disable (and start the compute) during 11:30pm 12:30am during the cron job hour. Additionally, it would also be beneficial if such feature could support complex scheduling. For example, disabling it during business hours and at midnight (cron job hour) only....

Unable to restore branch to a point in time

Hello, we are getting an error when trying to restore our main branch to any point in time that is not the latest. We submitted a support ticket (#6074) and would appreciate any help we can get as soon as possible, as the data we are trying to restore is critical.

im getting this in Neon DB is this due to my fault in my code or this issue arises from Neon server side

UX: Branch shown after clicking Connect, is not the same as the branch selected in "Monitoring"

This is really a pet-peeve and is quite annoying. As can be seen in the screenshot, after switching branches on the monitoring section and then clicking on Connect, I need to again select the branch that I am interested in connecting to. I have had so, so many instances that I quickly want to connect to a branch but then my DB client says that I got the wrong password after which I realize that I copied the password of the wrong branch. Put differently, in my head, the branch that is selected in the monitoring section is the one "I will connect to" after clicking "Connect"....

Shared compute - more cost effective

Having an individual resource allocation per db is very inefficient and not cost effective. It's because of this that we're putting all customer data in the same database instead of creating a database per customer. I understand that Neon can make more money with the current setup, but it makes more sense for customers to have a more efficient option. Vercel is doing something somewhat similar with fluid compute. For example, if I have 4 servers running and each one is using 0.2 CPU, I will be billed 4 * 0.25 = 1 CPU. With shared compute, I would only be billed 4 * 0.8 = 1 CPU. In a more extreme example where I'm using hundreds across customers and/or agents, if I have 200 servers running at 0.02, the I will be billed 200 * 0.25 = 50 CPU instead of 200 * 0.02 = 4 CPU. This means that while Neon starts out as a very affordable option compared to traditional hosting, when using Neon feature to the fullest, it can become very expensive at scale....
