  STACKIT PostgreSQL Flex API v3 is now generally available

  Sep 24, 2026

  We are happy to announce that STACKIT PostgreSQL Flex API v3 reached general availability on 1 August 2026. API v3 can also be used via the STACKIT CLI and Terraform and introduces more granular user and role management, custom resource labels, and instance protection.

  Important: Since delayed deletion no longer applies, deleting an instance in API v3 without active instance protection causes immediate, permanent, and unrecoverable data loss, so enable instance protection on all critical production instances.

  Learn more about the new capabilities in our documentation:

  • Manage user roles, including the new createrole role
  • Assign custom resource labels
  • Protect instances from accidental deletion with instance protection

  STACKIT AI Model Serving: New Model Release Qwen3.8 27B (Replacement for Qwen3.6 27B)

  Sep 8, 2026

  We are excited to announce that we are upgrading our model lineup by introducing Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B, which will serve as the successor to our current Qwen offerings.

  As the successor of Qwen3.6 27B the newer Qwen3.8 27B generally improves quality across all fields of application, while maintaining the focus on coding tasks. It was trained on a broad mix of publicly available data and post-trained for code generation, debugging, and technical reasoning, while also supporting general assistant tasks. With a context window of 262K tokens, it can handle large codebases and complex multi-step workflows.

  As part of this transition, we are officially deprecating the following model:

  • Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B

  We kindly ask all customers to migrate their workloads to the new model Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B before December 08, 2026.

  Explore our full model portfolio, and access detailed examples and tutorials in our documentation. Our Help Center is always at your disposal if you have any questions.
