Announcements

Exciting times are ahead. In the next release, the following are being revisited or additionally supported:

• Data model in the persistence layer
  Our aspiration is to have a uniform predictable database layouts on any database. To this, we believe cutting off RDF based models and switching to simpler key-value like attribute model will greatly help. This also saves some storage space in graph databases.
• Support for Postgres
  In our efforts to be database agnostic, we like to spend some efforts against this database in particular.
• Views
  We like to provide capability to control what data the READ API's fetch. Some plans include to allow this in a static and/or dynamic way, such the API will take additional inputs to transform the data. We also want to be able to allow 'formatting' support.
• Database sharding
  It is typical to manage data by partitioning it for various reasons. Some reasons include to cater to volumes, to provide logical separation, to provide controls or for legal purposes. We recognise this and want to provide a way for the adopters to manage this.
