Star History and Growth
The Star History chart below was exported on 2026-09-20. It covers eight PostgreSQL distribution and high-availability projects. The chart uses the former repository name vitabaks/autobase. This repository has moved to autobase-tech/autobase.

The table compares star growth from the 2026-07-01 baseline through 2026-09-20 (Beijing time). Both snapshots use exact GitHub repository stargazers_count totals.
