Features
- Storage-Attached Indexes (SAI): A highly scalable, globally distributed index for Cassandra databases, enabling column-level indexes for unparalleled I/O throughput across different data types, including vectors, and lightning-fast data retrieval through zero-copy streaming.
- Vector Search: A powerful technique for searching relevant content or discovering connections by comparing similarities in large document collections, especially useful for AI applications. It leverages storage-attached indexing and dense indexing techniques for enhanced data exploration.
- Unified Compaction Strategy: Unifies compaction approaches (leveled, tiered, time-windowed), significantly reducing SSTable sizes for better read/write performance, reduced storage, and improved overall efficiency.
- Trie Memtables and Trie SSTables: Utilizes trie data structures to optimize storage space and access speed, enhancing the efficiency of both reads and writes.
- New Mathematical Functions: Expands CQL with additional mathematical functions like
abs,exp,log,log10,round, and aggregation scalar CQL functions such ascount,max,min,sum,avgat a collection level, enhancing support for complex analytics. - Dynamic Data Masking: Strengthens security by allowing sensitive data to be dynamically masked from unauthorized access, ensuring data privacy and compliance.
- Stability and Testing Improvements: Introduces numerous enhancements to stability and testing.
