Provide ability to set "track_commit_timestamp" configuration parameter
Implementing data synchronization that requires usage of
"pgxactcommittimestamp". Enabling this requires "trackcommit_timestamp" configuration parameter to be set which is currently unavailable for Azure PostgreSQL.1 vote -
create user from az cli
Hello,
It could be great to create user from az cli like
"az postgres users create" The purpose of this feature allow me to create users automatically for a private postgres (without accessing the postgres from an outside machine or create a vm on the same subnet as my AKS)I would like to create several users, register them on k8s/secrets and run my software (and automatise these actions)

pg_stat_ssl view need to show client encryption status
currently in Azure PostgreSQL database,
pgstatssl view shows all connections from client as encrypted, which is false.
I asked Azure support and the answer is because the client is connecting to a gateway instead of real server, and the gateway always connect to backend server encrypted, so pgstatssl is always showing the connection as encrypted.
This defeated the purpose of pgstatssl view. I think it should be considered as a defect of Azure PostgresSQL .

Multi master replication
I'm a bit surprised to see that there is no support for multi master replication of postgres databases on Azure.
This should have been considered when other replication features were requested and implemented.
Please add support for multi master replication between any region without the arbitrary notion of partner and universal regions.

Lower prices drastically for Azure Managed PostgreSQL
I have been comparing the cost of managed Postgres on Azure to managed Postgres options on AWS and I'm absolutely floored at how much Azure charges.
There is no way the current state of things is competitive! For people who have no choice, it seems like Azure is driving them away by deliberately making Postgres cost more than MSSQL.
To make matters worse, the two only selectable basic tiers are so poor performing that they are totally unusable, taking literally upwards of 2 seconds for the most basic of queries on either the postgres system schema or my own application…

Set the AD admin with API
To be able to script the creation of a PostgreSQL Database, it could be great if it was possible to set the Azure AD admin with an API or Az CLI.
Thanks,

Monitor slow and long running queries on read replica
Would be helpful to monitor and pull statistics for queries executed on replica in Query Performance Insights. Currently its not allowed for replica's as the query data store in Azure_sys Database is also replicated from master.

PG_HBA: Sync rules from master to read replica to allow proper service failover
As described in this issue (I won't rewrite the whole request again): https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/35906
Azure's postgres PaaS is broken for the enterprise without this feature. I consider lack of this option a defect, not a feature request but am logging it here as directed.

Support creating VNET Service endpoint in Azure Red Hat OpenShift
Even though Azure DB for PostgreSQL provides secure connection, Applications on ARO needs to access Azure DB for PostgreSQL via internet.
Currently, VNET for ARO doesn't allow any modification, therefore, there is no option avoiding going through internet when applications connect to Azure DB for PostgreSQL.
There is no point in deploying a DB container on ARO. The user needs to consider how to manage DB.
If ARO allows modifying VNET creating Service endpoint for Azure DB for PostgreSQL, it could provide more secure route and low latency connections as well.

Resource Governace for CPU and Memory
We are running a multi-tenant system leveraging Azure PostgreSQL.
During heavy load, one Tenant can impact the system to a point where other databases are effected.Wondering if you are planning to support some type of resource governance in the future similar to Azure SQL
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/resource-governor/resource-governor-resource-pool?view=sql-server-2017I realize it wont be the same implementation, but maybe a new connectionstring parameter that could be set to limit CPU/Memory could be a start?

Reader Role can view Query Text
On AZ PostgeSQL Performance Insight, the role of Reader can view everything but not “query text”,
so basically like most of things in Azure we believe that Reader role should also be able to
view query text. And that is the issue and needs to be fixed in future releases.CSS, Requested by Customer

Azure VNet in paired region
For Azure SQL, service endpoint should allow traffic not only within a virtual network's region but also extend to include the paired region where the virtual network is deployed.
(Idea submitted by Manish Kumar from the engineering group of Azure Database for PostgreSQL/MySQL service on behalf of one of our customers and in order to elicit feedback from other customers and users).
