Interesting. This is now the second DB next to Oracle[1] that can do JS (that I know of). pgSQL and PL/SQL of course still stay relevant but in the Oracle spehere the argument is that you can reuse existing code from NPM. Like this blog post [2] describes how to run an GraphQL endpoint from within the DB.

PLV8 (the predecessor to this project) was released in June of 2012. It provided JavaScript as a trusted language extension to Postgres 9.2.

PLJS is a newer generation.
