### `prepared_statements`

Enables support for prepared statements. Available options are:

- `disabled`
- `extended`
- `extended_anonymous`
- `full`

`full` enables support for rewriting prepared statements sent over the simple protocol. `extended` handles prepared statements sent normally
using the extended protocol. `extended_anonymous` caches and rewrites unnamed prepared statements, which is useful for some legacy client drivers.
Controls which prepared statement protocols PgDog rewrites for its global cache.

| Setting | Extended named | Extended anonymous | Simple `PREPARE`/`EXECUTE` | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `disabled` | no | no | no | Statements are forwarded as-is with no rewriting. |
| `extended` | yes | no | no | Default. Rewrites named extended-protocol statements (`Parse`/`Bind`/`Execute`). |
| `extended_anonymous` | yes | yes | no | Also rewrites unnamed (anonymous) extended-protocol statements. |
| `full` | yes | no | yes | Superset of `extended`. Also rewrites simple-protocol `PREPARE`/`EXECUTE`. Requires parsing every query; higher CPU cost. |

Default: **`extended`**

Statements sent over the simple protocol are not checked against the global cache. Each new statement is given a unique
global name. Since this requires PgDog to parse _each_ incoming query, and that's computationally expensive, this feature is **disabled** by default.

!!! note
`full` extends `extended`: it rewrites named extended-protocol statements in addition to simple-protocol `PREPARE`/`EXECUTE`.

You can enable it in [`pgdog.toml`](../configuration/pgdog.toml/general.md#prepared_statements):
