Highlights of Recent PRs
db#7206 Enable Flat Format Support (Beta)
An important new feature, Flat format, which has been in development for the past two months, is now available. You can enable it by specifying the table option 'sst_format' = 'flat' via ALTER TABLE or during table creation. This feature is included in the latest v1.0.0-beta.1 release. Please note that this operation is currently irreversible—once enabled, you cannot switch back from Flat format to the original format.
db#7199 Fix Potential State Inconsistency When Using PostgreSQL or MySQL as Metasrv Backend
When using RDS as the backend for metadata storage, cluster state inconsistencies may occur. We strongly recommend that deployments relying on RDS upgrade to v1.0.0-beta.1 or later.
db#7213 db#7243 Improve Parallelism for COPY DATABASE and Partition Reads
These changes enable concurrent processing of multiple tables or partitions during queries and data exports, significantly improving export performance.
db#7224 db#7239 Fix Compaction Not Triggering in Certain Cases
We recommend that users on older versions upgrade to v1.0.0-beta.1 to avoid this issue.
