Are there any plans to support the upgraded v2.0 of the anon extension? It would be a nice performance upgrade to the current v1.3.2.

    Currently there is no official documentation which can provide details on support for anon 2.0 however you can always refer to the documentation here - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/postgresql/extensions/concepts-extensions-versions and here - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/postgresql/flexible-server/release-notes for all latest releases in future.

    Hi Tobias Wedelin,

    It looks like the Anon extension is currently available in version 1.3.2 across multiple PostgreSQL versions, from 11 to 17. This version provides data anonymization tools, which can be quite useful for maintaining privacy and security in your databases.
