RethinkDB 2.0 release candidate
- GordyMD 12y agoGood to see changes support for the get_all command. Look forward to testing this out over the weekend.
- danielmewes 12y agoGreat to hear! Let us know if you run into an issues or have questions.
- kolev 12y agoIt's a pity that we have RethinkDB and ArangoDB, but MongoDB still owns the mindsets...
- ddorian43 12y agoWhile it has many features, it severely lacks on the "custom-column-sharding" + "range-sharding" compared to mongodb. Since rethink-guys are always in these threads: What is your opinion on implementing compression/tokumx ? What about custom-column-sharding, range-sharding, regex-sharding (redislabs has done this)?
- danielmewes 12y agoWe currently support range sharding by primary key. Both compression and custom sharding are things we definitely want to do (https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/1862 https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/1862 , possibly https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/364 https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/364). I can't give an ETA on these features yet, but it will probably happen later this year.
- ddorian43 12y agoThat means you'll REMOVE range-sharding right? I just thought that issue was already completed.
- danielmewes 12y agoUncertain. The issue is still in the planning phase. We'll only remove range sharding if we're confident that hash-based sharding provides an adequate replacement of course. It's possible we'll keep both.
- neumino 12y agoWoot woot, congrats ladies and gentlemen :)
- cstigler 12y agoExcited for this! We've been hoping to switch at least part of our infrastructure to Rethink, but were waiting for 2.0. Are real benchmarks on the way with this release also? That's one critical thing we've been waiting to see. We want to see how it compares in common load scenarios to Mongo, Postgres, etc
- danielmewes 12y agoNot sure if we will have benchmarks available at launch, but they should follow soon after.
- tinco 12y agoI'm using RethinkDB for a new project I've been working on for the past few months, but I'm curious, why would you move existing infrastructure to RethinkDB? Is there a feature of RethinkDB that's good enough to motivate you to go through that process?
- neumino 12y agoI can think of these three right now: - changefeeds if you want to push data to your clients - joins (if you are on a system without them - like Mongo) - human-readable query language (if you are using SQL)
- cstigler 12y agoExactly. Joins and changefeeds being the big ones. We won't switch over everything, at least to start, but there are a few places where switching a collection to RethinkDB could give us huge efficiency/simplicity gains just using joins. And it shouldn't be too hard to switch single collections over by using Compose.io's Transporters to backfill into Mongo.
- adamtulinius 12y agoI saw a presentation by Slava, where he mentioned plans for official Java-drivers (among others). Are there any news on this front?
- danielmewes 12y agoWe'll start developing one pretty soon. You can follow the progress at https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/3930 https://github.com/rethinkdb/rethinkdb/issues/3930
- desireco42 12y agoGuys congratulation, RethinkDB continues to impress me with it's features and how fast you ship them.
