Jun 1, 2026

June 2026: DataDog/integrations-core delivered a targeted SQL obfuscation config enhancement to explicitly include dbms='postgresql' in obfuscation options, ensuring PostgreSQL-specific handling and parity with dbm-logs-processor. The change reduces the risk of an empty DBMS being passed and positions the codebase for future PostgreSQL lexer paths. Accompanied by strengthened tests and updated changelog/documentation.

April 2026: DataDog/integrations-core delivered a major security- and robustness-focused update across MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and MongoDB integrations. The work emphasized parameterized queries, safer schema discovery, enhanced observability, and monitoring stability. Key outcomes include unified parameterized queries in the QueryExecutor, parameterized handling for database names and explain paths, added unit tests and changelogs, and improved MongoDB monitoring with a stable database_instance tag. These changes reduce SQL injection risk, improve reliability across DB platforms, and strengthen monitoring resilience during outages.

June 2025 (2025-06) monthly summary for DataDog/integrations-core: Delivered PostgreSQL extension information collection and reporting in the Datadog agent. Implemented a new extension-details query, integrated the data into metadata reporting, and added tests validating the collection functionality. Implemented robustness fixes to prevent uninitialized access (_extensions_cached) and to ensure compatibility by casting pg_extension.oid to text for the metadata processor. Includes implementation commits and test coverage across related changes.

May 2025 — DataDog/integrations-core: Stability and correctness improvements in SQL explain processing. Focused on correcting EXPLAIN handling for multi-statement SQL that begins with SET commands by reverting a prior fix and introducing a dedicated utility to trim leading SET statements. These changes reduce ambiguity in query plans and improve reliability of integration tests and customer-facing analytics. Delivered a targeted code change and supporting utility to ensure accurate EXPLAIN results in multi-statement scenarios, with clear commit history for traceability.
