Terraform provider: MotherDuck's official Terraform provider supports Terraform 1.5 and later, enabling you to manage databases, shares, roles, secrets, and service accounts as code.

AWS Marketplace: MotherDuck is now available on AWS Marketplace via Private Offer, enabling you to consolidate billing and transact directly through AWS. Get in touch to learn more.

Role-based access control (RBAC): Admins can assign roles and grant scoped privileges to control access to databases, shares, and platform-level resources using the Members and Roles page in Settings. RBAC is available on Business and Enterprise plans; custom roles are also available for Enterprise customers.

Read and write to Cloudflare R2 Data Catalog: MotherDuck can now read from and write to Cloudflare R2 as a persisted Iceberg catalog.

Configurable maximum runtime for Flights: The Flights UI now includes a max runtime field to enable users to automatically stop runs if they exceed the set limit.

MotherDuck cloud coverage extends to Asia Pacific: MotherDuck is now available on AWS in Asia Pacific (Sydney)ap-southeast-2 and Asia Pacific (Tokyo)ap-northeast-1. Create new organizations in either region for lower latency and regional data residency. Flights are not yet available in these regions and are coming soon.

Run a Flight with a custom config: In the Flights UI, users can click the Run now menu to override config values for a single run, without editing the Flight itself.

Scheduled Flights available on Lite: Lite plan customers can now schedule Flight runs without per-user Flight or concurrency limits.

Rename views with ALTER TABLE ... RENAME TO: You can now rename a view in a MotherDuck catalog usingALTER TABLE <view> RENAME TO <new_name>.

Write to Databricks-managed Iceberg tables: MotherDuck can now write to Databricks-managed Iceberg tables.

Flights available on all plans: Flights are now available on Free and Lite plans, in addition to Business.

Flight secrets available as non-namespaced environment variables: Flight secrets are now injected into the Flight runtime under both the namespaced <secret_name>_<KEY> name and the bare <KEY> name, so your code can read them without the secret_name prefix.

Status page updates: Users can now subscribe to updates on the MotherDuck status page to be notified about system health and scheduled maintenance. Refer to service status for details.

Connect your tools: Integrations have been added to the Home page for easy access in the UI.

Dive statuses: Dives now carry a status (draft, ready, endorsed, or archived) to distinguish work-in-progress from vetted, endorsed Dives. Dive status shows up in the Dives list and the MCP/SQL tools for filtering and sorting.

DuckDB 1.4.5 and 1.5.4 support: MotherDuck supports DuckDB 1.4.5 and 1.5.4. Refer to the changelog and the official announcement for details.

Postgres endpoint JDBC compatibility improvements: The Postgres endpoint now resolves primary keys and indexes, reports column precision and identity metadata, exposes table and column comments, and scopes catalog views to the connected database, enabling BI tools and SQL IDEs like DBeaver and DataGrip to read your schema correctly.

Dives support for REFRESH DATABASE: Dives running on read scaling replicas can now run REFRESH DATABASE to pull the latest committed writes on demand, enabling Embedded Dives to reflect changes made from its host page.
