Summary of changes:
- In this release, we have made several significant updates to improve write performance and user experience.
- We have revised our implementation of key-value store that translates key-value pairs in the request to block layer data written to device.
- Specifically, we have replaced RocksDB with an internal implementation of a hash-based key-value translator and a hint-based logical block manager sensitive to optimal NVMe drive IO boundary to improve write performance.
- For impacted users, these updates should provide a smoother, more intuitive experience with a noticeable improvement to write operation.
- We have deprecated compaction and the requirement for written data to be compacted before reading to achieve maximum read performance is no longer needed.
- We have introduced a new format tool called
dss-formatter
to format devices; similar to existingmkfs-blobfs
tool which has now been deprecated.
Limitations
- Persistent key listing is not yet implemented. This will result in MinIO failing to return object listing after a reboot.
- Target startup time is presently longer than expected - and will be addressed in a future release.
