Hey everyone! I just wanted to note a couple big features that have landed in devel in the last week or two that are of note and will end up in the next release. - AWX now supports Postgres 15 and it is the default version that will be used - [PR Link](https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/pull/1486) - After a long wait, I am happy to announce that the AWX Operator now has readiness and liveliness probes, and the migrations run in a k8s job. - [PR Link](https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/pull/1674) πŸ‘ dhageman for your hard work on that. I can’t express how happy I am to have those changes in place. If you use an external instance of postgres, please note that you we recommend you upgrade to PostgreSQL 15. To enable readiness checks, set `task_readiness_period` on your AWX spec. This may be enabled by default for AWX deployments in a future release, but for now it is an opt in thing. Please see the docs here for more information on how to configure these readiness and liveliness checks: - [Container probes - Ansible AWX Operator Documentation](https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/awx-operator/en/latest/user-guide/advanced-configuration/container-probes.html?h=container) Big thanks to @kurokobo @TheRealHaoLiu and @aknochow for some quick feedback and fixes for the PostgreSQL 15 work. Thanks, AWX Team ---

Hi @rooftopcellist, this is great news indeed! Considering the content I moved the post from #News & Announcements to the #Project Discussions category (instead of the related #Ecosystem Releases), as this looks more like a discussion looking for feedback than an announcement. Once the release that contains these changes is published I would encourage you to repeat some of this info in that post and we can see if it justifies a mass email notification to all forum members (posts published in #News & Announcements) or if we keep it in the #Ecosystem Releases category. Thanks for sharing the upcoming changes! ---

> [@Leo](#): > > Once the release that contains these changes is published I would encourage you to repeat some of this info in that post Agreed, and perhaps even link to this discussion in the release notes, people need to be more aware of this category πŸ™‚ Super happy to see the PSQL15 update, for sure!
