PostgreSQL expertise, support and performance for every stage of your business.
PgF Community is the starting point for organizations that want to run pure community PostgreSQL with a trusted partner behind them. It covers every non-EOL PostgreSQL version and includes the proven open-source tools your teams already use, so there is nothing proprietary to learn and nothing to lock you in.
Postgres1st engineers provide long-term support (LTS) during business hours, 8x5, helping you install, configure, troubleshoot and keep your databases on supported releases. For older systems, PostgreSQL EOL support is available as an add-on, giving you time to plan upgrades on your terms.
PgF Community suits development and test environments, early production workloads and teams standardising on PostgreSQL for the first time. When your needs grow, you can move to Standard or Enterprise without migrating data or rewriting applications.
Learn MorePgF Standard Subscription is designed for production workloads that cannot wait for business hours. It includes everything in Community and upgrades LTS support to 24x7, backed by published response times: a 30-minute initial response and a 24-hour remedy target for Sev 1 issues.
Standard adds the core PGF tools for running PostgreSQL with confidence: PGF WatchTower for real-time monitoring, PGF DataGuardian for backup and recovery, PGF CopyCascade for high availability, and PGF Postgres for Kubernetes for cloud-native deployments. Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) protects data at rest without application changes.
To keep performance on track, Standard includes index usage analytics, connection pooling and replication lag optimization, and capacity planning and sizing advice, along with basic query diagnostics and performance dashboards. It is the right choice for business applications that need dependable uptime and expert help around the clock.
Learn MorePgF Enterprise Subscription is the complete Postgres1st offering for organizations where downtime, data exposure or slow queries carry real business risk. It includes everything in Standard, adds PGF Enterprise Server, and delivers our fastest support: a 15-minute initial response and a 4-hour remedy target for Sev 1 issues, 24x7.
Enterprise strengthens resilience and security with multi-master replication, multi-node point-in-time recovery, SQL injection protection, procedural-language code obfuscation and session tag auditing. Together with TDE, these controls help government, banking, healthcare and telecom teams meet audit and compliance demands while staying fully PostgreSQL-compatible.
Performance engineering is built in. Postgres1st experts provide full query diagnostics and enterprise monitoring dashboards, SQL plan management, query rewriting and partitioning advice, parallel query tuning, high-TPS and read-scaling architecture reviews, benchmarking and load testing, proactive health checks and hands-on application query tuning.
Enterprise also includes PGF Pal, Postgres1st's AI assistant for PostgreSQL. PGF Pal delivers AI-powered performance insights, query optimization recommendations, anomaly detection, AI-assisted query tuning, and SQL generation with plain-language query explanations, so teams find and fix issues faster.
