Scheduled updates for Business plan accounts
A few weeks ago, we announced scheduled updates for Neon, which include Postgres version upgrades, security patches, and Neon feature enhancements.
Updates only take a few seconds and are applied at the scheduled time or the next time your compute restarts.
Updates for Business plan accounts will start rolling out next week. You can check for updates notices and choose a preferred update window — learn how.
Computes larger than 8 CU or configured to scale beyond 8 CU are not updated automatically.
For more information about updates, see our Updates documentation. If you have questions, please reach out to us on Discord or contact Neon Support.
Early Access Program now available for organizations 🔓
Organization admins can now enable Early Access for their entire organization. Once enabled, all organization members can preview upcoming Neon features across their organization's projects.

Postgres version updates
We updated supported Postgres versions to 14.17, 15.12, 16.8, and 17.4, respectively.
When a new minor version is available on Neon, it is applied the next time your compute restarts (for any reason). For more about how we handle Postgres version upgrades, refer to our Postgres version support policy.
