This short report brings to light some interesting commits to scylladb.git master from the last week. Commits in the 3d781c4fc8…c17d353718 range are covered.
There were 110 non-merge commits from 27 authors in that period. Some notable commits:
The DESCRIBE SCHEMA statement is now extended with statements to re-create roles and grants. This can be used to re-create not only the schema, but also the user and permission structure when restoring from backup.
A race between tablet split and repair could cause an sstable not to be split among two new tablets, which in turn could prevent the sstable from being loaded on restart. This is now fixed.
The backup API can now operate on a single table.
A node that is being replaced is now marked so earlier so it does not get unexpected traffic.
The bundled node_exporter Prometheus metrics exporter was updated to version 1.8.2.
Alternator, ScyllaDB’s implementation of the DynamoDB API, can now stored information about provisioned throughput for the table.
See you in the next issue of last week in scylladb.git master!
