# Which Problems Are Solved
When starting Zitadel with Postgres version 18, setup fails with the
following error:
`level=error msg="migration failed" caller=".../cmd/setup/setup.go:373"
code=0A000 detail= error="ERROR: partitioned tables cannot be unlogged
(SQLSTATE 0A000)" hint= message="partitioned tables cannot be unlogged"
name=34_add_cache_schema severity=ERROR`
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Modify setup step 34 to ensure compatibility with PostgreSQL 18 by
changing the creation of the partitioned tables to`LOGGED` tables but
keep the partitions `UNLOGGED`.
- Added an additional setup step which alters the table persistence of
the partitioned tables to `LOGGED`.
# Additional Changes
- Bumped Postgres compatibility to version 18 in docs.
- Ensure default partitions for cache tables
## Additional Context
- closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/10712
- backport to v4
- migration from PostgreSQL version 17 to 18 was verified using
`pg_dumpall` and restoring the created backup file
- and new setups using PostgreSQL version 18 directly

# Which Problems Are Solved
Cache implementation using a PGX connection pool.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Defines a new schema `cache` in the zitadel database.
A table for string keys and a table for objects is defined.
For postgreSQL, tables are unlogged and partitioned by cache name for
performance.
Cockroach does not have unlogged tables and partitioning is an
enterprise feature that uses alternative syntax combined with sharding.
Regular tables are used here.
# Additional Changes
- `postgres.Config` can return a pxg pool. See following discussion
# Additional Context
- Part of https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8648
- Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8647
