Support DDL Changes #98

Open bradrobertson opened 9 years ago

bradrobertson commented 9 years ago

It would be nice if changes to sharded tables would be propagated automatically to all shards.

My understanding right now is that if I alter a table on the master, those changes would need to be manually reproduced across all shards. It'd be great to automate this.

How does this work for new tables btw? Will they automatically be sharded? Or is that a manual operation also?

@bradrobertson -- Citus v5.0 automatically propagates DDL changes to the shards.
