Feature Request: Rust UDF #77

Closed Bajix closed 4 years ago

Bajix commented 4 years ago

It would be great to be able to write native modules similar to how this can be done with Redis. Is that on the road map?

We're working hard on adding data types with a native API of operations, such as the recently added bitwise operations on the bytes data type and HLL/HMH ones. You can already compose these into transactions using operate() and predicate filters. It's always better to not use UDFs when you can get what you need from native Aerospike API operations - they perform and scale better than a Lua UDF.

We're also in progress on another native operations front, but I don't want to spoil the fun.

Regarding UDFs, overhauling those are on the roadmap, and Rust is always an interesting option. Your feature request is noted!
