๐Ÿ‘ Highlightsโ€‹

Region Repartition RC.1 introduces Region Repartition, allowing users to dynamically adjust partition rules and redistribute data at runtime, without rebuilding tables or performing manual migrations.

  • Split Partitions Split a large or hotspot partition into multiple smaller ones:
ALTER TABLE sensor_readings SPLIT PARTITION (
  device_id < 100
) INTO (
  device_id < 100 AND area < 'South',
  device_id < 100 AND area >= 'South'
);
  • Merge Partitions Merge multiple small partitions into a single one:
ALTER TABLE sensor_readings MERGE PARTITION (
  device_id < 100 AND area < 'South',
  device_id < 100 AND area >= 'South'
);
  • Execution Control with WITH Clause Users can control procedure behavior via WITH options:
ALTER TABLE sensor_readings SPLIT PARTITION (
  device_id < 100
) INTO (
  device_id < 100 AND area < 'South',
  device_id < 100 AND area >= 'South'
) WITH (
  TIMEOUT = '5m',
  WAIT = false
);
  • When WAIT = false, the statement returns immediately with a procedure_id. Progress can be checked via ADMIN procedure_state(procedure_id);
  • TIMEOUT sets an overall time limit for the operation.

Note: Region repartitioning is currently supported only when:

  • Running in distributed cluster mode
  • Using object storage and GC are enabled

Metric Engine Primary Key Filter Acceleration

RC.1 introduces a fast-path optimization for primary key filtering in the Metric Engine. Instead of decoding and materializing values row by row, the engine now performs direct comparisons on memcomparable-encoded primary key bytes, significantly reducing CPU overhead.

  • Dense codec: 20โ€“90ร— faster
  • Sparse codec: 3โ€“11ร— faster

This improvement greatly boosts query performance for high-cardinality metric workloads.

โš ๏ธ Compatibility noticeโ€‹

  • refactor: remove region_numbers from TableMeta and TableInfo by @WenyXu in #7519

In the new version, the TableMeta.region_numbers field has been removed. As older versions still depend on this field, downgrading from the new version to an older version may introduce compatibility issues. Specifically, an older version may fail or throw errors when reading data generated by the new version, since the region_numbers field is no longer present.

๐Ÿ‘ Highlightsโ€‹

This version applies database-level compaction options to existing tables that don't have table-level compaction options. Now users don't have to set compaction options manually for each table if they want to adjust them.

There are also some important bug fixes:

  • Panic when sorting on the time index column.
  • The experimental flat format may create incorrect index files.

It's recommended to upgrade to this version.

Dashboard v0.11.7 Releasedโ€‹

  • Metrics UI optimization: separated table and chart tabs, independent instant/range queries, support for time picker and multi-value display.
  • Timezone optimization: support for timezone validation and local storage persistence.
  • Flow management: UI for flow task CRUD operations.

Bulk Memtableโ€‹

For scenarios with high cardinality primary keys, this release introduces experimental Bulk Memtable and a new data organization format (flat format). Both must be used together. Bulk Memtable offers lower memory usage when dealing with high cardinality primary keys. When primary key cardinality exceeds two million, memory usage can be reduced by more than 75%. Currently, Bulk Memtable performs better with larger write batch sizes, and we recommend setting batch sizes to 1024 rows or more when using Bulk Memtable. Additionally, the new data organization format provides better query performance in high cardinality scenarios compared to the original format.

Users can enable the new data format and Bulk Memtable by specifying sst_format as flat when creating tables.

CREATE TABLE flat_format_table(
    request_id STRING,
    content STRING,
    greptime_timestamp TIMESTAMP TIME INDEX,
PRIMARY KEY (request_id))
WITH ('sst_format' = 'flat');

Additionally, for tables using the old format, you can switch to the flat format and Bulk Memtable using an ALTER statement.

ALTER TABLE old_format_table SET 'sst_format' = 'flat';

Tables using the flat format cannot be converted back to the old format. We will gradually switch the default format to the new format in future releases.

Independent Index File Cachingโ€‹

This release implements independent local caching for index files on object storage, allowing index files to be cached in local disk cache as much as possible, reducing the probability of accessing object storage during index queries. By default, the database allocates 20% of disk cache space to index files. Users can adjust this ratio by setting the index_cache_percent parameter.

In previous versions, when users increased the local disk cache size, only newly generated data files could enter the local write cache, providing limited improvement for querying historical data. In this version, the database loads index files from object storage to local storage in the background after startup, reducing the time required for historical data queries.

Read-Write Permission Control Modeโ€‹

This release introduces permission mode support for the static user provider, implementing read-write access control with support for read-only, write-only, and read-write permissions. This enhancement enables administrators to create users with specific access levels, improving security and data governance.

The static user provider now accepts the format username:permission_mode=password, where the optional permission_mode can be:

  • rw (read-write): Full access to read and write operations
  • ro (read-only): Restricted to read operations only
  • wo (write-only): Restricted to write operations only

Examples:

# Read-write user (default, backward compatible)
greptime_user=greptime_pwd
# Or explicitly specified
greptime_user:rw=greptime_pwd

# Read-only user
greptime_user:ro=greptime_pwd

# Write-only user
greptime_user:wo=greptime_pwd

This feature is fully backward compatible with the old format - users without an explicitly specified permission mode default to read-write access (rw).

TQL Supports Value Aliasingโ€‹

TQL now supports AS aliases for clearer column names and easier SQL integration.

TQL EVAL (0, 30, '10s') http_requests_total AS requests;

New objbench Subcommand (Datanode)โ€‹

This release adds the greptime datanode objbench subcommand for conducting read/write performance benchmarks on specified SST files in object storage. This tool can be used to analyze storage layer performance, troubleshoot slow queries or I/O latency issues, and supports generating flame graphs for deeper performance diagnostics. Main Features

  • Perform read/write performance tests on individual SST files
  • Support detailed output (-v/--verbose)
  • Support generating SVG flame graphs (--pprof-file)
  • Can load datanode configuration files (--config)
# Basic test
greptime datanode objbench --config datanode.toml --source <path>.parquet

# Generate flame graph
greptime datanode objbench --config datanode.toml --source <path>.parquet --pprof-file flamegraph.svg

๐Ÿšจ Breaking Changesโ€‹

  • Ordered-set aggregate functions
    • Now require a WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY โ€ฆ) clause (e.g., old: approx_percentile_cont(latency, 0.95), new: approx_percentile_cont(0.95) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY latency)).
  • MySQL protocol
    • Incorrect comment styling is no longer allowed; comments must start with -- instead of ---.

๐Ÿ‘ Highlightsโ€‹

๐Ÿ‘ Highlightsโ€‹

  • PromQL:

    • Adds absent() function for missing series detection (#6618).
    • Enhances PromQL compatibility with OLTP metrics (#6543).
    • Supports querying label values from internal labels __schema__ and __database__ (#6631).

  • Observability Improvements: Provides a panic logger, HTTP API to toggle heap profiling (enabled by default), and more verbose logs/metrics in EXPLAIN ANALYZE VERBOSE (#6633, #6593, #6575).

Breaking changesโ€‹

  • refactor: replace pipeline::value with vrl::value

    If you used greptime_identity to write positive integer data before version 0.16.0, in the following two cases:

    • Writing in nd-json format (vector greptimedb_logs sink),
    • Writing in json format, with values in the range between i64::MAX and u64::MAX

    The integer type would be recognized as u64. After version 0.16.0, however, greptime_identity will recognize this data as i64 (please note not to write data greater than i64::MAX). This may cause a mismatch between the written data and the table schema, or an overflow leading to write failures. You can use desc table_name to confirm the actual data type. You can directly modify the table structure to fix this issue, or use Transform in version 2 for custom type conversion.

๐Ÿ“Š Dashboard v0.10.6โ€‹

  • Sidebar Controls โ€“ Toggle visibility from left menu and persist tables sidebar width.
  • Data View Fullscreen Mode - Query results can be displayed in fullscreen for enhanced data analysis experience.
  • Refactored Log/Trace View - Improved log and trace viewing functionality with better user interface and performance.
