## Problem https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/11140 introduces performance tracing with OTEL and a pageserver config which configures the sampling ratio of get page requests. Enabling a non-zero sampling ratio on a per region basis is too aggressive and comes with perf impact that isn't very well understood yet. ## Summary of changes Add a `sampling_ratio` tenant level config which overrides the pageserver level config. Note that we do not cache the config and load it on every get page request such that changes propagate timely. Note that I've had to remove the `SHARD_SELECTION` span to get this to work. The tracing library doesn't expose a neat way to drop a span if one realises it's not needed at runtime. Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/11392
Local Development Control Plane (neon_local)
This crate contains tools to start a Neon development environment locally. This utility can be used with the cargo neon command. This is a convenience to invoke
the neon_local binary.
Note: this is a dev/test tool -- a minimal control plane suitable for testing code changes locally, but not suitable for running production systems.
Example: Start with Postgres 16
To create and start a local development environment with Postgres 16, you will need to provide --pg-version flag to 3 of the start-up commands.
cargo neon init --pg-version 16
cargo neon start
cargo neon tenant create --set-default --pg-version 16
cargo neon endpoint create main --pg-version 16
cargo neon endpoint start main
Example: Create Test User and Database
By default, cargo neon starts an endpoint with cloud_admin and postgres database. If you want to have a role and a database similar to what we have on the cloud service, you can do it with the following commands when starting an endpoint.
cargo neon endpoint create main --pg-version 16 --update-catalog true
cargo neon endpoint start main --create-test-user true
The first command creates neon_superuser and necessary roles. The second command creates test user and neondb database. You will see a connection string that connects you to the test user after running the second command.
