Just a minor nitpick: Postgres changed the version numbering scheme with version 10. So 9.4 was a major release, but 12.4 marks a minor (bugfix) release.
If you want to name minor releases it would be e.g. 9.4.26 vs. 12.4. If you want to compare major versions it would be 9.4 vs. 12
- takeda 6y agoBasically the first number didn't really have any meaning, so it was removed, so the major versions (which I believe are released once a year) are: 9.2 (released in 2012) 9.3 9.4 9.5 9.6 10 11 12 13 (about to be released this year?) That's still a lot of versions in between, each of them as new functionality and requires converting the database to upgrade.
