This short report brings to light some interesting commits to [scylladb.git master](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/) from the last week. Commits in the 3672715211..724dc1e582 range are covered.

There were 119 non-merge commits from 28 authors in that period. Some notable commits:

  

The view build worker builds materialized views from data staged by repair and sstable import. It now supports [tablets migrating](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/f0039381d22c3413dd96edbf1dd46365168735b3) within a node.

Audit can now [simultaneously](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/d54d409a52cd0b6776a923b2260e24bc3c6bc63b) write to both syslog and a table.

Batchlog replay is now [more careful](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/514c1fc719a0dbac378e5ab03179af8569bf9d41) when updating the last replay marker.

Automatic cleanup now allows the operator to [override](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/adaa0560d98389eea9d37cc01e8683890548216c) its decisions.

There is now a metric showing [uncompressed sstable file size](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/6ee0f1f3a7c58e98d0ccd59a328b0c485852f9b0), making it easier to gauge the benefit of compression.

The load-and-stream feature is now [more careful](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/1cabc8d9b001c53fb05dc5e19c48faf9d3bf2b65) to select the correct sstables to stream.

Tablet merging (when a table shrinks in size) can now happen [concurrently](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/d51b1fea94fda07e19ad999900c8ce29739ea4f9) with repair.

It is now possible to configure internode [compression only between racks](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/3c4546d8394528dd92c4e3b9363677d30f178e12). This is useful in avoiding public cloud inter-availability-zone charges while not compressing intra-availability-zone traffic.

The vector search client can now [use HTTPS](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/e8b0f8faa9c881e53734a0adccce005059375e36) to connect to vector search nodes.

The default sstable format for new clusters is now `ms`, using [Trie](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/b0643f89596f3a0238dc140ebc7a77337758af8d) indexes.

File based streaming (used for tablet migration) now [validates](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/commit/296d7b859519dd1cd705a650d1eb65844d097ec6) the checksum and digest.

  

See you in the next issue of last week in scylladb.git master!
