Hi everyone. There hasn't been a release of cstore_fdw for a while now. Is there a road map of new features or a release planed for the short term?

Thanks

we haven't been very active lately. use now postgres internal storage is checked into develop branch. This change enables streaming replication on cstore_fdw tables.

There are some pending task to address transaction support and backward compatibility. We would be releasing cstore_fdw 2.0 after addressing them.

Is there a particular feature you would be interested in ?

Hey @mtuncer, thanks for the reply.

I think this https://github.com/citusdata/cstore_fdw/issues/168, different compression methods would be a good feature to have. Also, query table expressions like ROLLUP, GROUPING SETS and CUBE are a bit slow in cstore_fdw so it would be nice if it could work better with that sort of expressions or resolve a greater part of the query, not just the look up.

Thanks!

Yeah, agree with above. I'd love to have pushdown support of sum, count, group bys support so it doesn't do the aggregations at the pg level.
