FoundationDB Roadmap: Past and Future
Talkat FoundationDB Summit 2019 · on Monday, 2019-11-18· at 09:50· Grand Ballroom 5, Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina·
summary
2019 brings a 6.1→6.2 cycle with over 200 release notes and ~3,000 commits and a practical doubled scalability limit (from ~200 disk clusters to over 400 in recent releases) plus work to reach ~3× larger; causal-read-risky is tightened by an 80 ms minimum master recovery to avoid stale read versions; page-cache tuning halves I/O in some workloads; backup/restore is being reworked to stream from TLogs to cut duplicate writes and speed restores; experimentals include query pushdown, new storage engines (Redwood, Wavefront) and native consistent caching for hot-key reads, plus CLI client-sampling and a background consistency checker.
