PostgreSQL release

French version below

We have updated PostgrSQL following the security flaw detected in versions 9 and 8. To be more exact, there were 3 flaws, with one more important: CVE-2013-1899. This one could lead to corrupt postgres datas. Two smaller ones came after it: CVE-2013-1900 and CVE-2013-1901.

These flaws affected the 4 last versions: 9.2, 9.1, 9.0 and 8.4 (8.3 is no longer supported by Clever Cloud).

Owing the critical nature of the issue, an announce was done last week indicating that public repositories will be closed until the relase of april, 4th.

All our clusters has been updated since, leading to a shut down of a few seconds.

Moreover, we also took advantages of this opportunity to manage the distribution of 3 of 4 new versions of Exherbo.

Version française

Nous avons effectué la mise à jour de PostgreSQL suite à la faille de sécurité détectée dans les versions 9 et 8.

Plus exactement, il y a eu 3 failles dont une très importante : la CVE-2013-1899. Celle-ci pouvait amener à la corruption des données postgres. Deux autres plus petites lui ont succédé: CVE-2013-1900 et CVE-2013-1901

Ces failles touchaient les 4 dernières branches: 9.2, 9.1, 9.0 et 8.4 (8.3 n'étant pas supportée par Clever Cloud).

Compte tenu de la nature critique de l'incident, une annonce a été faite la semaine dernière indiquant que les dépôts publics seraient fermés en attendant la release du 4 avril.

Tous nos clusters ont depuis été mis à jour, entrainant une coupure de quelques secondes.

De plus, nous en avons profité pour gérer la distribution de 3 des 4 nouvelles versions Exherbo.

Sōzu 2.0 — turning a reverse proxy into a programmable edge

Sōzu is the reverse proxy that sits in front of every application running on Clever Cloud. After eighteen months of work — first the HTTP/2 multiplexer, built on our existing kawa pivot, then almost every other layer of the proxy, and finally a long run in production on the cleverapps.io load balancers — Sōzu 2.0 is out.

K3s vs K8s: What Are the Differences and Which One Should You Choose in 2026?

Kubernetes has become the standard for container orchestration. But depending on your infrastructure constraints (limited resources, edge computing, IoT, or large-scale enterprise clusters), the distribution you choose can radically change the operational experience. K3s and K8s (upstream Kubernetes) address different needs, even though both share the same CNCF-certified foundation.
