UUIDv7 is coming in PostgreSQL 17
If you like this (I do very much), you might also like pg_idkit[0] which is a little extension with a bunch of other kinds of IDs that you can generate inside PG, thanks to the seriously awesome pgrx[1] and Rust.

90x Faster Than Pgvector – Lantern's HNSW Index Creation Time
(disclosure, i work at supabase and have been developing TLEs with the RDS team)
Trusted Language Extensions refer to an extension written in any trusted language. In this case Rust, but it also includes: plpgsql, plv8, etc. See [0]
> PL/Rust is a more performant and more feature-rich alternative to PL/pgSQL
This is only partially true. plpgsql has bindings to low-level Postgres APIs, so in some cases it is just as fast (or faster) than Rust.
> Building a vector index (or any index for that matter) inside Postgres is a more involved process and can not be done via the UDF interface, be it Rust, C or PL/pgSQL
Most PG Rust extensions are written with the excellent pgrx framework [1]. While it doesn't have index bindings right now, I can certainly imagine a future where this is possible[2].
All that said - I think there are a lot of hoops to jump through right now and I doubt it's worth it for the Latern team. I think they are right to focus on developing a separate C extension

SQL as API
I’m currently playing with PostgreSQL, foreign data wrappers, and pgrx rust extensions. My development experience has been surprisingly smooth and enjoyable.
My main issue is that joins will be processed locally, so all the foreign data will be fetched before the join happens. But otherwise basic CRUD is easy.

Postgres: The Next Generation
I think maybe what you’re really looking for are the files here: https://github.com/pgcentralfoundation/pgrx/tree/c2eac033856...
Those are the internals we currently expose as unsafe “sys” bindings.
As we/contributors identify more that are desired we add them.
pgrx’ focus is on providing safe wrappers and general interfaces to the Postgres internals, which is the bulk of our work and is what will take many years.
As unsafe bindings go, we could just expose everything, and likely eventually will. There’s just some practical management concerns around doing that without a better namespace organization —- something we’ve been working.
The Postgres sources are not small. They are very complex, inconsistent in places, and often follow patterns that are specific to Postgres and not easy to generalize.
If you’ve never built an extension with pgrx, give it a shot one afternoon. It’s very exciting to see your own code running in your database.
