Hi everyone,

Thanks for joining us today for our v0.25 release announcement! In this version we are introducing a new feature that has been requested by many of you: support for Row-level Security Policies in PostgreSQL.

Additionally, we have made some minor changes to our pricing plans, more on that below.

Today we are happy to announce that Atlas Cloud, our cloud offering, has achieved SOC2 compliance. This is a big milestone for us, which shows our determination to providing solid infrastructure for our users and customers.

SOC2 is a security and compliance standard that helps organizations demonstrate their ability to protect customer data and ensure the availability of their services. It’s like an independent third-party audit that evaluates how well a company follows industry-standard security practices, covering areas such as availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

Achieving SOC2 compliance requires a significant investment in time, effort, and resources, so you may be wondering why we decided to pursue this goal so early in the life of our product. The knee-jerk response of any seasoned engineer to large and long infrastructure projects should is:

YAGNI. You ain’t gonna need it.
